InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill

InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill is specifically designed for quick and efficient grinding, homogenizing and mixing of hard, soft, and elastic materials. InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill is also suitable for the disruption of biological cells as well as for DNA/RNA extraction. Installed with different sizes of grinding jars, InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill can also be used for wet and cryogenic grinding.


Cat. No. : TMM-100
Features
Quick and efficient grinding :grinding of 56 or 192 samples in 2~ 4 minutes.
Applicable to various samples:used for size reduction and pulverization of hard, medium-hard, and brittle samples as well as for soft, elastic or fibrous ones. Sample types most suitable include fibrous tissue, bone, hair, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, sugar pills, minerals, ores, alloy, glass, ceramics, soil, sludge, plant tissue, grain particles, oilseeds material, plastic, waste, wool, and textile, and etc. in addition to plant samples, animal samples, bacteria and yeast samples .
Flexible operation :1-192 samples can be grinded each time.
Optional accessories:including adapter rack for 2 X 28 X/ 2.0ml reaction vials ,adapter rack for 2X96 deep-well plate, and grinding jars of 25ml and 50ml.
Vibrational speed is adjustable from 100 to 1500/min.
Cross contamination is not easy to occur.
Vibrational timing is adjustable from 1 second to 99 minutes 99 seconds.
Grinding Principle
InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill comes with pair of rocker arms offering high speed and high amplitude strength mixing and grinding. The grinding jars perform oscillations in horizontal position while the grinding balls impacts and pulverizes on the sample in grinding jars.   The movement of the grinding jars combined with the movement of the grinding balls result in the simultaneous intensive mixing of sample.   The degree of mixing can be increased even further by using several smaller balls.   With higher number of small balls (e.g. glass beads), for example, samples like biological cells most recommended for even disruption.   As a function of frequency, up to 1800 pulverization impacts per minute can be achieved delivering high speed homogenized mixing and milling.
Cryogenic Grinding
InfinigenTM Tissue Mixer Mill can also be used to the thermally-sensitive samples which need cryogenic grinding.   Firstly, place the samples and grinding beads into the stainless steel screw-top grinding jars.   Then immerse the jars into the liquid nitrogen.   Upon frozen, fix the grinding jars onto the rapid self-locking clamping device.   The screw-top grinding jars are particularly suitable for cryogenic grinding, as they remain hermetically sealed until return to room temperature.   This prevents atmospheric humidity from condensing on the cold sample as water vapor which could penetrate the sample and falsify the analytical results.
(Please note, to avoid damage durign grinding process, jars made from agate or ceramics should not be cooled with liquid nitrogen.)
