Step 1reason for perfoming these steps

These steps are performed for cell disruption to release the desired biomolecules from cells. This cell disruption technique

divided into 2 types depending on the type of tissues are as follows:

The first one is Gentle disruption includes freeze-thaw lysis, enzymatic lysis, detergent lysis, and osmotic lysis.

second is Harsh disruption includes mechanical homogenization, French press, sonication, and grinding.
