The tissue sample is progressively ground (sheared) into smaller pieces at the rounded end of the pestle as the spinning pestle is lowered into the tube. As the pestle is forced lower into the tube, the sample is displaced and forced between the straight outside wall of the pestle and the inside wall of the tube, compressing the tissue cells until they rupture. When the tube is pulled away from the pestle, a slight vacuum is created that pulls the sample back past the compression area, resulting in an additional homogenization stroke. The degree of homogenization is controlled by the clearance between the pestle’s and tube’s cylindrical section, the rotational speed of the pestle, and the number of compression strokes made. The Potter-Elvehjem tissue grinder has rounded shape on the lower portion of the pestle where th sample is progressively ground smaller. Ground glass pestle versions are suited for connective tissues whereas PTFE pestle versions are used with softer tissues.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExterior plastic coated glass mortar provides greater safety during power homogenization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE pestle tip with 6.3mm diameter stainless steel rod can be used with power homogenization for soft tissue such as brain or liver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComponents are interchangeable eliminating need to keep parts matched during cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit can be autoclaved \/ sterilized to prevent cross contamination between samples\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePestle clearance range: 0.1 – 0.15mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table data grouped rwd-table tablesorter row-table\" id=\"super-product-table\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"cat_no\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eCatalog No\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eMain Article Description\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label capacity\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNominal Capacity (mL)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label  diameter\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eDiameter (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eOverall Length (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eTube Length (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"row-quantity\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003ePack Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"item product product-item related-available\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Catalog No\"\u003e358005\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Main Article Description\"\u003ePestle and Tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Nominal Capacity (mL)\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Diameter (mm)\"\u003e13\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Overall Length (mm)\"\u003e219\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Tube Length (mm)\"\u003e66\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Quantity\"\u003e2 Kits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"item product product-item related-available\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Catalog No\"\u003e358009\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Main Article Description\"\u003ePestle and Tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Nominal Capacity (mL)\"\u003e15\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Diameter (mm)\"\u003e19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Overall Length (mm)\"\u003e219\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Tube Length (mm)\"\u003e84\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Quantity\"\u003e2 Kits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"item product product-item related-available\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Catalog No\"\u003e358013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Main Article Description\"\u003ePestle and Tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Nominal Capacity (mL)\"\u003e55\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Diameter (mm)\"\u003e30\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Overall Length (mm)\"\u003e266\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Tube Length (mm)\"\u003e130\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Quantity\"\u003e2 Kits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"DWK Life Sciences","offers":[{"title":"5mL","offer_id":40944351641658,"sku":"DWK358005","price":282.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15mL","offer_id":40944351674426,"sku":"DWK358009","price":328.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"55mL","offer_id":40944351707194,"sku":"DWK358013","price":448.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/7785\/files\/DWK358005.jpg?v=1752658758","url":"https:\/\/www.msesupplies.com\/en-de\/products\/wheaton-safe-grind-potter-elvehjem-tissue-grinder","provider":"MSE Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
