2023.09.28+29 – Universitätsmedizin Mannheim – Lesser-Loewe-Symposium: Pathology: Opportunities for Newcomers in Science

In a poster session at PONS, Fraunhofer proudly presented the results of a study comparing the influence on surface markers of primary isolated splenocytes for cells dissociated from tissue samples with enzymatic treatment vs. mechanical dissociation with the FFX TissueGrinder

Employing our FFX TissueGrinder with its fast and enzyme-free dissociation of solid biopsies, a team from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) in Erlangen has created a new, fast and precise method for clinicians to analyse cells in samples from cancer patients without the need for a trained pathologist.

Recent advances hold promise of making personalized medicine a step closer to implementation in clinical settings. However, traditional sample preparation methods are not robust and reproducible. In this study, the TissueGrinder, a novel mechanical semi-automated benchtop device, which can isolate cells from tissue in a very fast and enzyme-free way is tested for cell isolation from surgically resected tumor tissues.
