Abstract
This paper presents a novel device to disrupt and homogenize tissue samples for the effective extraction of the genomic DNA, total RNA and proteins from tissue samples. This device utilizes a resonant piezo-diaphragm coated with rough sand grains, which effectively homogenizes liver sample (10-50 mg) within 15 s. High yield of genomic DNA (0.98 μg/mg) and intact toal RNA (0.15 μg/mg) are successfully extracted from the dissociated rat liver sample solution. The simplicity of this planar chip would enable potential integration with on-chip RT-PCR for cancer typing and sub-typing using biopsy tumor tissue sample.
