Electric Meat Grinder
This classic tool has two applications in the molecular biology area:
1) Preparing large amounts of tissue (100g - >1 kg) for subsequent fast and complete cell lysis using a BeadBeater, ultrasonicator, rotor-stator homogenizer, or high shear press.
2) recovering large quantities of viable single cells following incubation of the dispersed tissue in proteolytic enzymes that break down the extracellular matrix.
Description
The meat grinder reduces fresh muscle and animal organ tissue to pieces about 1 mm in cross-section. The cutting action of the slowly rotating blades is much like the action of a pair of scissors. During this relatively gentle tissue dispersion process a high proportion of tissue cells remain intact and viable.
