Abstract
A method for preparing a sample by utilizing a shearing force in the presence of a size stabilizer to break apart the sample to obtain nucleic acid molecules in a usable size range. Once nucleic acid molecules are obtained, magnetic entanglement particles are used to concentrate and clean the nucleic acid molecules for further testing.
