Grinding of seeds and grains without risk of cross-contamination:

The agricultural industry and government health and food regulatory agencies are very interested in the fast and accurate analysis of seeds, grains and food. Laboratories in these industries face the challenge of efficiently milling seeds and grains without the risk of cross-contamination during the milling process or the transfer of sample material to storage containers. In addition, it is difficult to reliably grind very small quantities of samples with most laboratory bench mills.

The Tube Mill control Agriculture Solution package, consisting of the Tube Mill control batch mill and patented disposable plastic chambers with a volume of 40 ml, was specially put together by the IKA product experts to address these challenges.

Grinding, storage and transport of the samples takes place in a closed, disposable grinding chamber which eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between different batches. The time-consuming cleaning of the mill and the containers after each cycle is also eliminated. The MT grinding chambers are designed to process even the smallest sample quantities from 1 gram (e. g. a single tablet).

The Tube Mill control is a batch mill for grinding hard, brittle and dry materials up to Mohs hardness 5. With its disposable and reusable grinding chambers with a volume of 40 ml, it is versatile and can be used for a wide range of requirements.
