The gentleMACS Dissociator is a benchtop instrument for the semi-automated dissociation of tissues into single-cell suspensions or thorough homogenates. A single sample or two samples in parallel can be processed. Two types of unique gentleMACS Tubes used with the instrument enable the time-saving and easy dissociation or homogenization of tissues in a closed system. The instrument offers optimized gentleMACS Programs for a variety of specific applications. Special protocols have been developed for various tissues. The standardized tissue dissociation or homogenization procedures make for reliable and reproducible results.

Optimized, pre-set gentleMACS Programs have been developed for easy dissociation of tissues into single-cell suspensions, including mouse or human tumor; mouse or rat neonatal heart; neural tissue; mouse spleen, lung, lamina propria, muscle, epidermis, or liver; and mouse or human skin.

Also, programs have been developed for the homogenization of tissues, for total RNA or mRNA isolation from fresh or frozen samples; protein extraction; determination of bacterial or viral load; and mitochondria isolation.

This dissociator is used and reconditioned. Our technicians test all equipment to confirm that it operates properly and to the manufacturer’s specifications. While we can’t test for a specific analytical application, we will do our best to simulate the conditions under which the equipment will be run. If you have particular testing requirements or requests please let us know and we’ll work with you to make sure these requirements are addressed during testing.
