The High Speed Ultrasonic Homogenizer (BIO-0590) is a dual-function benchtop instrument combining ultrasonic disruption and high-speed emulsification capabilities for comprehensive sample processing. The system features ultrasonic homogenization with automatic consumption regulation and programmable timing up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds, controlled through a 7-inch touchscreen display. The integrated emulsification module operates at speeds from 4,000 to 26,000 rpm with a maximum shear speed of 47 m/s, utilizing a 316L stainless steel working head for chemical resistance and durability.
This instrument addresses the need for consistent, reproducible sample disruption across varied sample types and volumes. The temperature control range from -10°C to 199°C accommodates both ambient and temperature-sensitive applications, while the slub-type working head design with Φ40×250mm dimensions and minimum immersion depth of 150-300mm ensures effective processing of sample volumes from small laboratory preparations to moderate batch sizes.
How It Works
The ultrasonic homogenization function operates through high-frequency acoustic waves that create alternating compression and rarefaction cycles in the sample medium. During rarefaction phases, microscopic bubbles form and rapidly collapse through cavitational forces, generating localized high-pressure and high-temperature conditions that mechanically disrupt cellular structures, particle aggregates, and molecular complexes. The automatic consumption regulation system monitors power delivery to maintain consistent processing conditions regardless of sample viscosity or volume changes.
The integrated emulsification system employs mechanical shearing through a high-speed rotor-stator configuration. The 316L stainless steel working head generates intense hydraulic shear forces as sample material is drawn into the rotor assembly and expelled through precision gaps at speeds up to 26,000 rpm. This dual-action approach combines the molecular-level disruption of ultrasonic cavitation with the macroscopic mixing efficiency of high-speed emulsification, enabling complete sample homogenization across multiple length scales.
Temperature control throughout both processes prevents thermal degradation of sensitive samples while allowing temperature-dependent applications. The programmable timing system enables reproducible processing protocols, while real-time monitoring through the LCD display provides feedback on processing parameters and energy consumption.

Practical Tips
Verify immersion depth using a test sample before processing valuable samples, as the minimum 150mm depth requirement is critical for effective cavitation.
Why: Insufficient immersion depth reduces processing efficiency and can cause equipment damage.
Clean the working head immediately after each use and inspect for signs of cavitation erosion on the surface.
Why: Residual sample material can affect subsequent processing and erosion patterns indicate optimal replacement timing.
Start with lower emulsification speeds and shorter processing times, then optimize based on sample response and desired particle size.
Why: Over-processing can generate excessive heat and potentially degrade sensitive sample components.
Allow adequate pre-cooling time when processing temperature-sensitive samples below ambient temperature.
Why: The system's wide temperature range requires equilibration time to achieve stable processing conditions.
Always ensure the working head is fully immersed before activating ultrasonic or emulsification functions.
Why: Operating without proper immersion can damage the equipment and create safety hazards from uncontrolled cavitation.
Document all processing parameters including temperature, speed, duration, and sample volume for each protocol.
Why: Comprehensive documentation enables reproducible results and troubleshooting of processing variables.
If processing efficiency decreases, check for air bubble entrapment around the working head and adjust sample positioning.
Why: Air bubbles interfere with ultrasonic transmission and reduce cavitational effectiveness.
