They trust us! “My group is mostly focused on epigenetic reprogramming, and I have been using Diagenode products for the last 5 years. My experience with antibodies, ChIP kits and the Bioruptor is nothing but positive. Diagenode products are unique for reproducibility, and this has always been a great plus for the success of my experiments.” Dr. Raffaele Teperino - Environmental Epigenetic Group - Institute of Experimental Genetics, Helmholtz Zentrum Muenchen GmbH, Germany. “High throughput sequencing has dramatically reduced sequencing costs, and the development of duel indexing strategies makes...

DIAGENODE BIORUPTOR® / MEGARUPTOR® Bioruptor benefits ROTATION The samples in the tube holder are rotated through the ultrasound field to expose each sample to the same intensity of energy and ensure shearing consistency. The Bioruptor utilizes a sonication bath-based rotor. The walls of the sonication bath reflect the ultrasound waves in a random but reproducible pattern. The Bioruptor sonication bath is equally exposed to ultrasound energy allowing for the dissipation of heat and providing uniform absorption of energy. ADAPTIVE CAVITATION TECHNOLOGY (ACT) Uses a highly-controlled ultrasonic...

FAST PARALLEL-PROCESSING The design of the tube holders allows you to run up to 16 samples simultaneously in a run of a maximum of 30 minutes. CLOSED ENVIRONMENT The closed tube format prevents the sample from cross-contamination and aerosol formation. ISOTHERMAL TECHNOLOGY A unique cooling system provides isothermal processing to preserve biological samples. FULLY VALIDATED TUBES Diagenode provides specific tubes that ensure maximum energy delivery to samples with minimal attenuation of ultrasound intensity. LOW RUNNING COST < 1€/$/DNA sample

DIAGENODE BIORUPTOR® / MEGARUPTOR® Application versatility FFPE nucleic acid extraction Deparaffinization of FFPE samples is typically performed using a non-polar solvent, such as xylene, or a mineral oil-based method which can be time consuming and messy. Using Diagenode’s Bioruptor is a superior method for removing the paraffin and rehydrating FFPE tissues in just one solvent-free step followed by a mild crosslink reversal to preserve DNA and RNA integrity. Efficient deparaffinization of FFPE sections by sonication with Bioruptor 10 µm sections were sonicated for 3 cycles (30 sec ON/OFF at...
