A probe sonicator, also known as an ultrasonic probe or sonication probe, is a device used to disrupt, mix, or emulsify materials using high-frequency sound waves (typically between 20-40 kHz). It consists of a handheld probe connected to an ultrasonic generator.
Probe sonicators are used in various applications:
1. Sample preparation (e.g., DNA extraction, cell lysis)2. Mixing and blending (e.g., chemicals, biological samples)3. Emulsification (e.g., cosmetics, pharmaceuticals)4. Dispersion (e.g., nanoparticles, pigments)5. Degassing (e.g., removing air bubbles from liquids)6. Cleaning (e.g., removing contaminants from surfaces)
Key features of probe sonicators:
1. Frequency and power control2. Probe tip design and material (e.g., titanium, stainless steel)3. Amplitude and intensity adjustment4. Pulse mode operation (for sensitive samples)5. Cooling systems (for temperature control)
Benefits of probe sonicators:
1. Precise control over sonication parameters2. Efficient processing of small to medium-sized samples3. Gentle or intense sonication (depending on the application)4. Reduced processing time and effort5. Easy to use and maintain
When choosing a probe sonicator, consider factors like:
1. Application-specific requirements (e.g., frequency, power)2. Sample size and type3. Probe tip compatibility and durability4. Generator power and control options5. Brand reputation and customer support
Probe sonicators are versatile tools used in various industries, including research, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food processing.
