The teachers used Luo Shang ( LAWSON) provides a wet grinding method for grinding various tissues. The samples, steel balls and lysate that need to be ground are simultaneously placed in an EP tube for grinding. After grinding, the supernatant is centrifuged for the next operation. The research team used the LAWSON tissue grinder to help in the research of mTOR signal regulation mechanism, function and its mechanism of disease occurrence, bone metabolism regulation and bone tissue engineering.

Extract DNA, RNA, pro, etc. from rice tissues for use in plant metabolic engineering, gene cloning and transgenic plant research. Using the LAWSON tissue grinder, you can process 192 samples at the same time. Each sample is independent, allowing the teachers to complete the three-month work in one month. The experiment is more efficient, saving the teacher's precious time and getting The old people's praise.
