Tissue grinders efficiently crush samples using a method that eliminates the possibility personnel will come in contact and contaminate contents. Available in different strength levels, sizes, and abrasiveness, any material being handled can be reduced in volume or particle size. While thin grinders are ideal for soft organic homogenates, fibrous samples require more powerful tools for enhanced grinding action. The tissue grinders will properly prepare samples for a homogenized uniformity.
Tissue Grinders with PTFE Pestles, KONTES®, DUALL®, KIMBLE®
Supplier: KIMBLEKONTES
Tissue grinders greatly improve grinding efficiency by combining both conical and cylindrical surfaces to effectively reduce tissue and produce a uniform homogenate.

VWR®, Tissue Grinders, Potter-Elvehjem Type
Supplier: VWR Collection
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.

Tissue grinders, Tenbroeck type, PYREX®
Supplier: Corning
These tissue grinders are designed for use in hand grinding small samples for pathological or biochemical studies. It may also be motor driven at low speed if some form of friction release is provided. Mortar tubes and pestles are ground to be interchangeable. The medium grind provides the required abrasive action to deliver well homogenised samples.

Tissue grinders with glass pestles, KONTES® DUALL®, KIMBLE®
Supplier: KIMBLEKONTES
Ideal for grinding connective tissue such as muscle, heart, and lungs. These ground glass tissue grinders combine conical and cylindrical surfaces to reduce tissue and produce uniform homogenate. In the bottom, tapered section of the tube tissue is ground to a smaller particle size. The final homogenate is produced as tissue is forced through the cylindrical portion of the tube.
