[0002] RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) is a molecule widely exists in organism, it plays a vital role in the transmission and expression of genetic information, RNA and DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) together constitute the basis of life. RNA extraction is a very important technology in molecular biology and genomics research, used to isolate RNA from various biological samples. The purpose of RNA extraction is to obtain high-quality, high-purity RNA for subsequent experimental analysis, such as RT-qPCR, Northern blot, RNA sequencing, etc.

[0003] In the process of purifying RNA, tissue grinding tubes play an important role. They are usually designed to ensure that tissue samples can be effectively broken down, so as to release the RNA inside the cells. In the process of grinding tissue samples, the current tissue grinding tube first adds tissue samples and grinding balls into the grinding tube, and then places the grinding tube in the grinder for grinding. The combination mode of the existing grinder and grinding tube often simply relies on the basic shaking and swinging power provided by the grinder to make the grinding balls in the grinding tube roll and collide in a limited space. Due to the lack of auxiliary grinding structure in the grinding tube, it is difficult to effectively guide and synergize the movement track, impact angle and force of the grinding balls. For example, when facing muscle tissue or connective tissue samples with tough texture and complex fiber structure, the grinding balls can only rely on random collision and rolling, and many times they are only repeatedly rubbed on the surface of the sample, which is difficult to truly penetrate into the inside of the tissue and completely tear and crush the tough fiber strands. This results in a long grinding time and a greatly reduced overall grinding efficiency, which not only seriously delays the progress of scientific research experiments, but also consumes a lot of human and material resources, becoming a key shortcoming that needs to be overcome in the current tissue sample grinding work. Therefore, a tissue grinding tube for quickly purifying RNA is proposed. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0027] The present application provides a kind of tissue grinding tube of RNA that can be quickly purified as Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the present application provides a kind of tissue grinding tube of RNA that can be quickly purified, including grinding tube body 1, the two ends of grinding tube body 1 are concave and form grinding cavity 3, grinding cavity 3 is used to hold tissue sample and grinding ball, the end of grinding cavity 3 is detachably installed with sealing cover 2, the detachable sealing cover 2 is convenient to disassemble, and visible window 6 is embedded on the outside of sealing cover 2, visible window 6 is made of transparent material, by means of visible window 6, staff can know the grinding condition of tissue sample in the grinding tube without opening sealing cover 2.

[0028] In addition, the tissue grinding tube capable of quickly purifying RNA further comprises grinding protrusions 5 and an auxiliary grinding part 4, the grinding protrusions 5 are arranged in a ring array on the inner wall of the grinding cavity 3, and the auxiliary grinding part 4 is connected to the inner wall of the sealing cover 2.

[0029] As shown in Figure 4 Preferably, the grinding protrusions 5 are composed of two arc-shaped protrusions, and a channel for passing the tissue sample is arranged between the arc-shaped protrusions and the inner wall of the grinding cavity 3.

[0030] When the grinding beads move in the grinding cavity 3, the grinding protrusions 5 can guide the grinding beads to form more complex and efficient movement trajectories during vibration or stirring, increase the collision and friction times with the tissue sample, and thus grind the tissue into fine and uniform powder more quickly, improve the grinding efficiency, and facilitate the subsequent rapid purification of RNA.

[0031] In addition, the grinding protrusions 5 can also be replaced by spiral or wavy protrusion tracks arranged in the tube to guide the grinding beads to form more complex and efficient movement trajectories during vibration or stirring, and increase the collision and friction times with the tissue sample.

[0032] As shown in Figure 5 The auxiliary grinding part 4 comprises:

[0033] The connecting rod 41 is arranged along the length direction of the grinding tube body 1, and one end of the connecting rod 41 is connected to the middle of the inner wall of the sealing cover 2.

[0034] The two rotating rings 42 are arranged above and below, and the two rotating rings 42 are rotatably arranged outside the connecting rod 41, preferably mounted by bearings, and at least one protrusion 43 is connected to the outer wall of each connecting rod 41, and the movable rod 44 is connected between the two protrusions 43 opposite to each other, the end of the movable rod 44 is connected to the protrusion 43 through a bearing, and a plurality of crushing knives 45 are mounted on the outer part of the movable rod 44 along the length direction, and the crushing knives 45 are single-edged or double-edged.

[0035] In summary, the two grinding cavities 3 have the powerful ability to grind two types of tissue samples simultaneously, greatly improving the grinding efficiency. In specific use, the tissue samples to be ground can be added to the grinding cavity 3, and the grinding balls are then added. Then, the sealing cover 2 is covered, and the grinding tube is placed in the grinder. After that, the grinder is started to perform the grinding operation. During grinding, the grinding balls move inside the grinding cavity 3 to grind the tissue samples. At the same time, the grinding balls collide with the grinding protrusions 5, causing them to instantaneously change direction and speed, and the movement trajectory becomes more complex and variable. This sudden change makes the subsequent impact angle of the grinding balls on the tissue samples more elusive and the force distribution more diverse, allowing the tissue samples to be ground into fine powder more quickly and completely, greatly improving the grinding precision, uniformity, and overall effect, and laying a solid foundation for subsequent experimental steps.

[0036] In addition, during grinding, the rotating ring 42 can rotate by collision, and the movable rod 44 with the crushing knife 45 installed can also rotate in an indefinite direction. When the movable rod 44 is in an indefinite rotating state, the crushing knife 45 can continuously impact the tissue samples with different forces. Especially for tissue samples with strong toughness, conventional grinding methods often take a long time and do not completely crush the samples. However, at this moment, the multi-directional and high-frequency cutting and crushing action of the crushing knife 45 can deeply disintegrate the tough fiber tissue and strong meat structure, fully destroy the internal cell structure and fiber structure, and better achieve the crushing effect, accelerate the release of RNA, and greatly speed up the grinding process, effectively improving the work efficiency and quality of the overall sample processing.

[0037] If the crushing knife 45 is single-edged, the edges of adjacent two layers of crushing knives 45 can be oppositely arranged, so that the edges can cut the tissue samples during forward and reverse rotation, thereby accelerating the overall grinding process and significantly improving work efficiency and quality.

[0038] For the detachable connection of the sealing cover 2, the inner wall end of the sealing cover 2 is provided with an internal thread 8, and the outer wall end of the grinding tube body 1 is provided with an external thread 7. The sealing cover 2 is connected to the end of the grinding tube body 1 by the internal thread 8. A sealing ring can be provided at the connection to improve the sealing performance after connection.

[0039] When installing the sealing cover 2, the sealing cover 2 can be directly screwed onto the end of the grinding tube body 1 provided with the external thread 7, thereby achieving efficient sealing and stable assembly, providing a solid structural support and connection guarantee.

[0040] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
