Notes from our archives

OPS Diagnostics, LLC, was established in 2001 as a company that designs and manufactures specialized products for the life science community. Our initial products in tissue homogenization and aseptic freeze drying have been surpassed by products in high throughput tissue homogenization, bead beating, lyophilization, vortexers, and high throughput sample processing. Products for the HT Homogenizer and GenoGrinder 2000 have been developed to accommodate high throughput tissue homogenization and grinding of seeds and leaf tissue. New products are now being added in sonication (sonicators and sonication buffer) and lyophilization buffers.
