Ultrasonic cell pulverizer principle

Fundamental

The ultrasonic cell pulverizer utilizes the dispersion effect of ultrasonic waves in a liquid to cause cavitation of the liquid, thereby breaking solid particles or cell tissues in the liquid.

The ultrasonic cell pulverizer consists of two parts: an ultrasonic generator and a transducer. The ultrasonic generator converts the utility power into an 18-21 KHz alternating power supply transducer. The zirconium titanate piezoelectric vibrator is the heart of the transducer. It is elastically deformed with the alternating voltage at a frequency of 18-21 kHz, and the transducer is subjected to longitudinal mechanical vibration. The vibration wave generates a cavitation effect by the titanium alloy horn immersed in the biological solution, and the biological particles in the excitation medium vibrate violently.

The main purpose

Ultrasonic shredders can be used to comminute animal cells, plant cells, bacteria, dental spores or tissues. Disperse rare earth and various inorganic mineral powders.

Ultrasonic pulverizers are ideal for accelerating chemical, biological, and physics reaction rates and accelerating liquid degassing.

The ultrasonic pulverizer can prepare nearly one micron of latex size; homogenize the "immiscible" mixture; polymerize some substances and precipitate other substances.

In summary, the ultrasonic pulverizer can realize various functions of extraction, pulverization, emulsification, homogenization, suspension, variability, aerosol suspension, accelerated desolvation, crystallization and preparation of various biological samples under an electron microscope.
