Small Particles, No Loss of Volatiles
sample cryomilling
We have used this cryomicromill for about a year now and have great results. Achieves a uniform, fine powder in minutes. We also have not noticed any contamination for the milling components. The unit does use a fair amount of liquid nitrogen for initial cool down, but it is fairly conservative once sample grinding is conducted. Definitely buy spare grinding tubes so that you can increase the duty cycle while waiting for the previously ground sample to warm up to be removed from the tube.

Makes great lysates, but can easily become inoperable.
Preparation of Yeast Lysates
This mill is versatile and creates a reproducible product every time I use it. There is a large amount of time and liquid nitrogen spent in prepping the machine, so using it over traditional methods doesn't save time. It is very efficient in generating lysates that are consistent and reproducible. The big downside to this piece of equipment is that the on-board electronics tend to seize if the unit becomes too cold, which is very easy when using liquid nitrogen. Typically, the machine can be used for one run before it must be completely warmed up to room temperature before subsequent use. This model can handle up to 20 grams of material at a time with the right accessories, so they can alleviate problems with downtime.
