This invention describes a rapid (10 to 15 minutes), simple, flexible and efficient method of nucleic acids extraction for nucleic acid testing assays. This method has the following basic steps: i) mechanical cell lysis using solid particles in the presence of a chelating agent, followed by ii) controlling the presence and/or activity of NAT assays inhibitors. This method is applicable to various biological samples and universal for microorganisms, as one can use it to extract nucleic acids from test samples containing target viruses, bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi, parasites or other eukaryotic cells, including animal and human cells.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for the universal release of nucleic acids from viral particles, bacterial cells, yeast cells, fungal cells, parasitical cells, animal cells or human cells of a sample, suitable for use in a nucleic acid testing (NAT) assay, consisting essentially of the steps of: a) contacting the cells or viral particles with a mixture of at least a first set and a second set of solid lysing particles, wherein the particles in the first set are of a smaller diameter than the particles of the second set, and wherein the diameters of the first set fall between about 75 μm to about 212 μm and wherein the diameters of the second set fall between about 425 μm and 2000 μm, wherein the mixture does not contain any lysogenic agents, b) applying a mechanical force sufficient to lyse the cells or viral particles, so as to obtain a cellular or viral lysate; and c) controlling the presence and/or activity of nucleic acids testing (NAT) assay inhibitors. 2.

The method of claim 1 wherein the step of controlling NAT assay inhibitors is performed by either, a) removing the inhibitors out of the sample and/or the lysate; b) diluting the inhibitors in the sample and/or the lysate; c) inactivating the inhibitors in the sample and/or the lysate; or d) any combination of (a)-(e). 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the step of removing the inhibitors is a step of adsorbing said inhibitors out of the sample or the lysate. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the step of adsorbing is performed with activated carbon. 7. The method of claim 4, wherein the step of removing the inhibitors is a step of purifying the cells, viral particles, or cellular components on a density gradient. 8.
