Stand-mounted Ultrasonic Cell Disruptor

I. Product Introduction

The ultrasonic cell disruptor is a multi-functional, multi-purpose instrument that uses strong ultrasound to generate a cavitation effect in liquid for ultrasonic treatment of substances. It can be used to disrupt animal and plant tissues, cells, bacteria and spore strains, and can also be used for emulsification, separation, dispersion, homogenization, extraction, degassing, cleaning and accelerating chemical reactions.

II. Working Principle

By utilizing the dispersion effect of ultrasound in liquid, cavitation is generated in the liquid, thereby disrupting solid particles or cell tissues in the liquid. The ultrasonic cell disruptor consists of two main parts: an ultrasonic generator and a transducer. The ultrasonic generator converts mains electricity into 20-25 KHz alternating electrical energy supplied to the transducer. The barium zirconate titanate piezoelectric vibrator is the heart of the transducer; it stretches and contracts elastically at 20-25 KHz with the alternating voltage, and the transducer performs longitudinal mechanical vibration accordingly. The vibration wave generates a cavitation effect through the titanium alloy horn immersed in the biological solution, exciting the biological particles in the medium to vibrate violently.

III. Applications

The ultrasonic disruptor can be used to disrupt animal and plant cells, bacteria, spores or tissues, and to disperse rare earths and various inorganic mineral powders.

The ultrasonic disruptor is an ideal device for accelerating the reaction speed of chemistry, biology and physics and for accelerating liquid degassing.

The ultrasonic disruptor can prepare latex colloids of nearly one hundredth of a micron in size; homogenize "difficult-to-mix" mixtures; polymerize some substances and precipitate others.

In short, the ultrasonic disruptor can realize multiple functions such as extraction, disruption, emulsification, homogenization, suspension, variation, aerosol formation, accelerated desolvation, crystallization and preparation of various biological samples under an electron microscope.

IV. Product Features

1. Split design: the main unit is separated from the transducer, reducing the influence of vibration.

2. Adjustable bracket: height and angle are adjustable, adapting to different containers (test tubes, beakers, reactors, etc.).

3. An intelligent MCU digital integrated circuit is adopted, supporting intermittent/continuous operation modes.

4. 10.1-inch medical-grade LCD touch screen with high resolution, intuitive interface and smooth operation.

5. Transducer: aviation-grade magnesium-aluminum alloy transducer.

6. Chinese/English selection (factory setting).

7. Ultrasound-on time, ultrasound-off time and total time can be set accurately to 0.1 second.

8. It has test and run modes with pause or stop functions.

9. It has functions such as automatic horn matching, automatic frequency tracking and automatic fault alarm (or protection).

10. The ultrasonic probe uses TC4 military-grade titanium alloy material, with high strength, good corrosion resistance and high heat resistance.

11. Up to 256 groups of engineering parameters can be stored, allowing experimenters to conveniently configure and retrieve parameters.

12. Password protection function prevents unauthorized operation by non-operators.

13. The working voice alarm uses a buzzer.

14. Rear expansion interface supports an external manual switch or foot switch for fine manual control, and can also be linked to external devices (such as a thermostatic device, stirrer, etc.); optional connection to a host computer.
