The Cell Disruptor is a system that allows the extraction of proteins expressed in a recombinant manner; it uses a shear disruption method facilitated by the cell disruptor. The instrument can operate in continuous flow mode allowing you to lyse up to 6 liters of sample in one hour; it can lyse samples at a maximum processing pressure of 40 kpsi (2700 bar). The unit has an integrated cooling jacket and an automatic shut-off function when the process is complete.
