Liquid nitrogen cooled mortar

Useful for grinding frozen samples, this product includes a heavily insulated blue polyethylene housing that keeps liquid nitrogen cold longer. Now frozen tissue samples can be ground without the hazard of liquid nitrogen droplets flying into personnel.

A 304 stainless-steel mortar is suspended by three brackets above a stainless-steel bowl which holds the liquid nitrogen. The bowl is nested in a well-insulated polyethylene housing.

  • Permits grinding of smaller amounts of tissue directly in a 1.5ml microcentrifuge tube resulting in reduced sample loss and collection time
  • Prevents the tube from cracking by eliminating direct contact with liquid nitrogen
  • Includes 12.7cm long stainless steel pestle with 1.9cm diameter x 10.2cm W polyethylene handle
  • Suction feet keep (3) the unit stable on the workbench

Available: Spare mortar, Ceramic pestle (180mm), Ceramic pestle (114mm)
