Is it possible to prepare antigens from bacterial suspensions by vortexing?

29 March 2014 1 9K Report

Is vortexing safe to disrupt bacteria in suspensions for antigen preparations?

It is unlikely that you can uniformly disrupt bacteria by vortexing. You will have to sonicate with membrane disrupting agents [detergents/chaotropes etc] to get bacterial antigens in solution
