Probe Sonicator is the popular name for an Ultrasonic homogenizer.

The Orchid Scientifics' Ultrasonic Homogenizers offer precision engineering with all the necessary features to create a total

system for ultrasonic disruption.

Orchid's Probe Sonicator is a tool specially designed for Pharmaceutical, Chemical Labs and various Research Institutes,

Colleges, Universities.

A Sonicator system is comprised of 3 major components: Generator, Converter and Horn (also known as a probe). The ultrasonic

electronic Generator transforms AC line power to high frequency electrical energy. The generator features a keypad or buttons

which allow the user to control the sonication parameters. The generator provides high voltage pulses of energy at a frequency of

20 kHz that drives a piezoelectric Converter. The converter is a cylindrical device which is connected to the generator by a high

voltage cable. The converter transforms electrical energy to mechanical vibration due to the characteristics of the internal

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. Probe Sonicator is also used to fragment molecules of DNA. Probe Sonicator is

commonly used in nanotechnology for evenly dispersing nanoparticles in liquids and for breaking down particles to Nano size.

The vibration is amplified and transmitted down the length of the Probe/Horn.

PROBE SONICATOR(Ultrasonic Homogenizer)

Features:

Amplitude (intensity) is controlled from 1-100% giving a greater degree of resolution and the ability to pinpoint the amplitude needed to effectively process your sample. Intensity can be controlled by rotating knob on front panel.

Parameters like Total Time, Pulse ON Time, Pulse OFF Time can be adjusted.

Adjustable pulse On and Off times to reduce the heat gain in temperature sensitive samples.

A temperature probe is available for those customers who wish to prevent their samples from degradation by setting analog type temperature lock.

Sonication is an ideal tool for lysing bacteria, yeast and tissue cells for the extraction of protein, DNA, RNA, and cellular components. DNA shearing (ChIP Assay) is a very common application.

Cell disruption is common in analytical, quality control, and R & D labs to perform numerous functions from mixing and degassing of analytical samples. Liposomes and emulsions are easily formed by Sonication for microencapsulation purposes in the production of creams and lotions.

Sonication accelerates both physical and chemical reactions, creating new fields of research. Major advances in sonochemistry include chemical synthesis of catalysts and new alloys, catalyzing organo-metallic reactions, micro-encapsulation of protein and hydrolyzing esters. The use of sonication provides greater yields, increases overall efficiency, and saves energy.

Industrial uses include forming emulsions, catalyzing reactions, extracting compounds, and reducing particle size. Continuous, in-line Flocells and special ultrasonic horns are available for processing larger volumes. Sonication is being used in the Paint and Pigment industry to disperse dyes and inks and in the Ceramic industry to degas slips and create denser castings.

Sonication is used by environmental testing labs to process soil and sediment samples.Sonication takes just 8-10 minutes per sample versus 4-18 hours by soxhlet extraction, it uses half the solvent and improves contaminant yields. Both single and dual horn systems are available. If the sample load is high, then a Dual Horn system is recommended because it allows you to process two samples simultaneously.

Probes are made from titanium and machined to specific sizes and shapes. When driven at their resonant frequency, they expand and contract longitudinally. This mechanical vibration is amplified and transmitted down the length of the probe. In liquid, the probe causes cavitation which constitutes the main mechanism for sample processing

Standard Probes:

Choosing the appropriate probe is extremely important. The sample volume to be processed is directly related to the tip
