GLEN MILLS French Press G-M® Model 11 (230V 50Hz)
$50,000.00
The French pressure cell press, or French press, is an apparatus used in biological experimentation to disrupt the plasma membrane of cells by passing them through a narrow valve under high pressure.
The French Press can also be used for the disintegration of chloroplasts, homogenates of animal tissue, and other biological particles. It is capable of disrupting cell walls while leaving the cell nucleus undisturbed. The press uses an external hydraulic pump to drive a piston within a larger cylinder that contains the liquid sample. The highly pressurized sample is then squeezed past a needle valve. As the sample passes through the valve, the fluid experiences shear stress and decompression, causing cellular disruption.
A French press is commonly used to break the resilient plasma membrane and cell walls of bacteria and other microorganisms for the isolation of proteins and other cellular components. The disruption of cells in a French press generates ‘inside-out’ membrane vesicles which are required for many in vitro biochemical assays.
Features
The FRENCH PRESS G-M® matches the performance of traditional FRENCH PRESSES.
- Old style Standard PRESSURE CELLS (40 kpsi; 35ml) can be used. Sold separately.
- Highest pressure hydraulic press commercially available to disrupt the toughest cells.
- Internal pressures generated within the Standard PRESSURE CELL can attain 40,000 psi.
- Sample volumes to 35ml with Standard PRESSURE CELL; minimal sample loss.
- Highly Polished Mirror Finish Stainless Steel Housing: 150 grit electro-polished for sanitary applications and for ease of cleaning
- Large easy to read 6” Hydraulic Pressure Gauge. Mounted prominently on front. Preferred over a tiny digital display.
- Pressure limits clearly marked on Pressure Gauge.
- Pressure Regulator Valve offers good control, easy to operate.
- Ratio Selector Switch is non-mechanical, twin solenoids for long life.
- Forced air inter-cooler for hydraulic fluid to maintain proper fluid viscosity.
- Tables for Hydraulic Pressure Gauge reading conversion to Inner
- PRESSURE CELL pressure conveniently located on front panel.
- All individual electrical components are UL approved.
