Abstract

A process and closure arrangement is provided for isolating purified biological material. The process includes placing biological materials in separate lysis vessels, adding lysis liquids to the biological materials in the lysis vessels, and transferring the liquids in the lysis vessels into a matrix unit. The liquids in the matrix vessels of the matrix unit are extracted through outlet openings during which the liquids flow through matrices and the matrix unit is placed on a collecting unit with collecting vessels which are arranged such that at least the outlet openings of the matrix vessels extend into the collecting vessels. The matrix vessels are with elution fluid and elution fluids from the matrix vessels are extracted through their outlet openings during which the elution fluids flow through the matrices and the elution fluids which are enriched with biological material are collected in the collecting vessels.
