Probe Sonicator is a multi-functional and multi-purpose instrument that utilizes the cavitation effect of ultrasonic waves to process experimental samples. It is suitable for 100μl-600ml capacity samples, with the advantages of continuously adjustable ultrasonic time and power, and is capable of crushing all kinds of animal and plant tissues, cells, bacteria, and can be used for emulsification, separation, dispersion, extraction and accelerated chemical reactions. It is widely used in the fields of life science, material science and environmental protection.
Ultrasonic homogenizers, commonly referred to as "sonicators," disrupt tissues and cells through cavitation and ultrasonic waves. Their core mechanism involves a rapidly vibrating tip that induces the rapid formation and collapse of bubbles in the surrounding solution—a process known as cavitation. This phenomenon generates shear forces and shock waves, which effectively tear apart cells and particles.
▋Key Applications
Sonicators excel at breaking down suspended cells and subcellular structures. Beyond this primary use, they serve multiple purposes, including:
Creating stable emulsions by uniformly mixing immiscible liquids;
Dispersing nanoparticles to prevent agglomeration and maintain suspension homogeneity;
Reducing particle size in suspensions to optimize distribution
