Disrupts small tissue and cell samples for protein extraction. Uses 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes, grinding resin and disposable pestles. Process up to 1NANA mg of sample per tube in about 1NA min. Sample Grinding Kit is ready to use for disrupting small tissue and cell samples for protein extraction. The kit consists of 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes, each containing a small quantity of abrasive grinding resin suspended in water, and disposable pestles for grinding. The tube is first centrifuged to pellet the resin and water is removed. Then extraction solution of choice and the sample are added to the tube, and the pestle is used to grind the sample. After centrifugation, cellular debris and grinding resin pellet firmly in the bottom of the conical tube, and the supernatant is easily pipetted out.
