Probe Sonicator is the popular name for an Ultrasonic homogenizer. The Probe Sonicator consists of a Ultrasonic Generator whose energy is channelized into media through a metal horn or probe. Ultra Instruments Supplies Probe Sonicator from Branson, USA
Probe Sonicator can be used to speed dissolution, by breaking intermolecular interactions. In biological applications, Probe Sonicator is used to disrupt or deactivate a biological material. For example Probe Sonicator is often used to disrupt cell membranes and release cellular contents. This process is called sonoporation. Probe Sonicator is also used to fragment molecules of DNA, in which the DNA subjected to brief periods of sonication is sheared into smaller fragments. Probe Sonicator is commonly used in nanotechnology for evenly dispersing nanoparticles in liquids and for breaking down particles to Nano size. Probe Sonicator comes in different capacities of Frequency and Energy.
