Introduction
The tissue homogenizer utilizes a vertical shock system with high-speed reciprocating motion to make the frozen samples in the grinding tube collide with the grinding beads, The resulting grinding shear force and impact force completely crush the tissues, making it a specialized device for rapid one-time processing of multiple samples in research institutions, universities and agricultural, biomedical, food testing fields.
Features:
Linear guide rail, stable and durable, capable of continuous grinding for 24 hours
Capable of processing up to 24 samples at a time
Adapter module can be pre-cooled at low temperature to reduce sample degradation
Multiple adapters are optional
Compact and sleek appearance

*It is recommended to use steel grinding beads for protein extraction and zirconia grinding beads for RNA extraction.
Notes
When using 4mm grinding beads or large grinding beads, it is necessary to use a 2mL U-bottom tube. 1.5mL conical tube may cause obstruction, affecting the grinding effect (it is recommended to use our 2ml centrifuge tubes, which have thicker walls and higher material strength, suitable for grinding, SKU: TUBE0020-H).
The tissue size is preferably below 1-3mm, and the weight should be within 100mg.
If you want to reuse the grinding beads, it is recommended to soak them in absolute ethanol for 15 minutes before use, then filter out the grinding beads and dry them for future use.
To prevent sample degradation while ensuring the grinding effect, the following principles should be followed:
Minimize the number of grinding beads used
Minimize the grinding time
When using the instrument, ensure that the load on both sides of the adapter is balanced, and do not use it unilaterally.
To protect the internal circuitry and mechanics of the instrument, do not rinse it with running water. Use a damp cloth to clean it.
If any abnormality occurs during use, immediately disconnect the power and contact a professional for handling.
The instrument must be placed on a horizontal and flat laboratory bench to prevent vibration during operation.
After ensuring that the adapter and fastening screws are correctly installed, close the top cover and start the instrument.
The beads pen is an innovative product used with the tissue homogenizer beads grinding system. The grinding beads have been pre-installed in the beads pen, The specified number of beads can be pressed out according to specific needs, which perfectly solves the difficulty of adding beads by tweezers. No longer have to worry about the cross-contamination of beads after opening the cap.
