What effect does homogenization have on DNA yield and integrity when using QIAwave DNA/RNA Kits?

The yield and integrity of genomic DNA depend on the disruption and homogenization method used with the QIAwave DNA/RNA kits. 
Homogenization with the TissueRuptor II (or other rotor-stator homogenizer) or the TissueLyser III results in greater DNA fragmentation (depending on homogenization time and intensity). However, shorter DNA fragments are easier to elute, resulting in higher DNA yields.
