BECAUSE BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO...
SPEX SamplePrep’s family of Freezer/Mills are cryogenic laboratory mills used to
chill samples in liquid nitrogen and pulverize them with a magnetically driven
impactor. The SPEX SamplePrep Freezer/Mills are recognized as the world’s most
effective laboratory mills.
::
DNA/RNA extraction—Bone, teeth,
hair, skeletal material-recent or ancient,
plant and animal tissues, leaves, etc.
Sample maintains low level temperatures
due to continuous immersion in liquid
nitrogen.
::
Pharmaceutical Analysis/Drug
Testing—Heat sensitive metabolites,
isomers and complex molecules retain their
composition as they are not degraded by
heat or pressure.
::
Volatile Compounds—Ensures
retention of volatile components.
::
Medical Research—Pulverizing fresh
sterilized bone to produce bone cement,
grind implant materials for toxicity testing,
tissue homogenization.
::
RoHS/WEEE—Embrittles sample to
improve breaking properties, avoid frictional
heat, while ensuring volatile fractions are
not adversely affected.
::
Plastics/Polymers —Cryogenic temperature
allows sample preparation for difcult to
grind plastics and polymers.
