Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) research has allowed countless insights into biological processes in homeostasis and disease progression. To obtain a comprehensive view of relevant genes and their expression profiles, robust upstream tissue homogenization is an integral part of the workflow. We evaluated bead mill homogenization via the Omni Bead Ruptor Elite bead mill homogenizer to assess efficacy in preparing iPSC-derived neural progenitor (NP) cells for RNA isolation and subsequent COX-1 and COX-2 detection.
