Rice cell (cell mass) systems were established using a grinding method, and then these systems were treated with salicylic acid, Ca2 , Mg2 and Zn2 respectively, the results showed that the materials, such as salicylic acid, Ca2 , and Mg2 , which can induce apoptosis were able to induce the DNA fragmentation, instead, Zn2 could not induce. It can be concluded preliminarily that cell apoptosis system has been established by grinding method. This study also revealed that the grinded rice cell (cell mass) is available for the research of cell apoptosis. Key words: grind, rice, cell apoptosis, system
