Guide to the Homogenization of Biological Samples 2008
NOTE:  An updated version of this guide is now available. Click here!.


The homogenization of plant and animal samples for genomics and proteomics is still very much an art.  Like the early days of molecular biology, every lab has a different process with some being more laborious than others.  This paper breaks down the different processes used for genomics and proteomics research and examines throughput and effectiveness of the techniques employed.

This page provides a link to the Guide to the Homogenization of Biological Samples.  This is a working/dynamic document that has been written from data and information that OPS Diagnostics has accumulated over several years.  This document will be periodically revised. 

To expand this document we are seeking input from researchers on the types of samples they have homogenized and the methods they applied.  If you would like to contribute your information, please send us an email at this link.
