About Lysing Matrix Y, 2 mL tube

Lysing Matrix Y 2 mL tubes contain 0.5 mm diameter Yttria-Stabilized Zirconium Oxide beads. Y2O3 + ZrO2 has high density and has extremely high hardness making this matrix ideal for cracking of very tough cell walls, while it's smooth surface minimizes shearing. Lysing Matrix Y is used primarily for lysis of gram (+/-) bacteria, fungal tissue and spores, yeasts, molds, filamentous algaes and biofilms. Matrix Y tubes have yellow caps.

Versatile Sample Processing

Lysing Matrix Y is suitable for diverse applications, from research laboratories to diagnostic facilities, due to its ability to disrupt various biological samples. By providing rapid and reliable lysis of bacteria and fungi, it streamlines nucleic acid extraction and downstream analysis.

Range of Tube Sizes for Flexibility

Available in tube sizes of 2 mL, 4.5 mL, 15 mL, and 50 mL, Lysing Matrix Y adapts to small-scale tests and large-volume sample processing. This flexibility helps labs optimize efficiency while maintaining consistency in results across different batch sizes.
