Tissue grinders, Potter-Elvehjem type

Plunger with serrated tip
270 mm
30 ml
Borosilicate glass tube, PTFE pestle with stainless steel shaft. Tissue grinders are used for controlled reduction of particle size and homogenisation of a variety of substances, especially biological material. The shearing forces generated by the movement of the rotating plunger in a precision bore tube cause size reduction, determining factors include clearance between the pestle head and tube, speed of rotation and viscosity of medium.
 
Grinding chamber clearance: 0,15 to 0,25 mm
 
Diameter of stainless steel shaft: 6,5 mm
