An ultrasonic homogenizer, also known as an ultrasonic disruptor or sonicator, is a laboratory instrument that uses high-frequency sound waves to disrupt or homogenize biological samples, chemicals, and other materials. It is commonly used in scientific research, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and other industries. The basic principle of an ultrasonic homogenizer is the use of ultrasonic waves generated by a transducer to create high-frequency pressure waves in a liquid medium. These pressure waves create microscopic bubbles in the liquid through a process known as cavitation. When these bubbles collapse, they generate intense shock waves and micro-jets that produce shear forces and shock waves that can disrupt or homogenize the sample.
For nanoparticle applications; Probe Sonicator or Ultrasonic Homogenizer is considered better than Ultrasonic cleaner. Complete unit of an ultrasonic probe Sonicator comprises of a generator, converter cable and horn (probe). It also called ultrasonic cell crusher or tissue disruptor and ultrasonic homogenizer. At STERICOX, we bring to comprehensive range of ultrasonic probe sonicators that come with different power capacities; 150W, 650W, 1200W and 1800W. These probe sonicators feature touch screen display, which is menu driven. User can set various sonication parameters and save settings. There are various diameter of horns (probes) are available from 2mm, 3mm, 10mm to 25 mm. Each unit offers amplitude control from1-99%. Each probe Sonicator is supplied at competitive price in India.
