Vortex 24 Tubes, Hands Free!
The combination of our vortex adapters and vortexes are:

- Cost $avings: The combination of both is a great alternative to expensive FAST machines for equivalent DNA yields.
- Speeds up Sample Prep: Variable speed control allows slow speed shaking action or high speed vortexing.
- Hands-Free or "Touch" Control: Multi-position power or "Touch" control.
- Improve Batch Processing: The vortex adapters are available for different sizes: 2 ml, 15 ml and 50 ml.
- Convenient and Secure: Adapters shake multiple tubes horizontally while plastics clips on adapters hold tubes firmly, even at highest speed.
- Easy Set-up: Adapters snap directly on to Vortex-Genie 2 and Labnet vortex.
- Compatible with any MO BIO kits using a bead beating technology.

Attention all Plant Biologists!
-Do you have problems amplifying your DNA due to the presence of Polysaccharides and Polyphenols?

-Are you tired of wasting time hand grinding and cleaning your mortar and pestle after each sample?


PowerPlant DNA Isolation Kit provides a novel method for isolating high quality genomic DNA from a variety of tissues, such as leaves, roots, and seeds. This unique hands-off homogenization uses a bead beating format and allows up to 24 samples to be processed at the same time using either a Vortex Adapter or a bench top homogenizer such as MO BIO's Precellys® 24 Homogenizer. With its NEW and really robust bead tubes, this kit will allow you to grind almost everything!

Nearly all types of plant tissues can be processed without hand grinding or liquid nitrogen freezing. With this kit's novel PCR inhibitor removal system, pure genomic DNA can be obtained in less than 60 minutes. All tubes, beads, and reagents are included.
