How much does a Microfluidizer cost?
$9,695.00. The M-110L Microfluidizer Processor provides the highest shear rates of any available mixer or homogenizer on the market today. The energy-per-unit fluid volume is maximized to produce uniform submicron particle and droplet sizes.
What is a Microfluidizer?
2.2 Microfluidization. Microfluidization is a method used for production of micro and nanoscale size materials. Microfluidizers are also widely used to produce NFCs. A microfluidizer uses a pump to create high pressure to disintegrate fibers using shear forces.
What is tissue homogenizer?
A homogenizer is a piece of laboratory or industrial equipment used for the homogenization of various types of material, such as tissue, plant, food, soil, and many others. Many different models have been developed using various physical technologies for disruption.
What is homogenizer in microbiology?
Homogenizers are used to blend chemical or biological samples. Homogenizer instruments often employ pre-filled microtubes with ceramic beads to aid in disruption and mixing of cells. This is often aided by oscillation or reciprocal motion of the homogenizer.
Why is homogenizer used?
Homogenizers are heavy-duty high-pressure pumps equipped with a special valve at the discharge end. In milk production, homogenizers are designed to break up fat globules from their normal size of up to 18 micrometres to less than 2 micrometres in diameter (a micrometre is one-millionth of a metre).
What is the purpose of homogenizer?
To Reduce Particle Size First and foremost, the purpose of homogenization is to reduce the size of the particles making up a sample. In simple terms, it’s a bit like taking a boulder and smashing it into gravel, except, in this case, the gravel pieces would be all the same size and shape.
What is homogenizer function?
Homogenizers function as mixers that reduce particle size or force immiscible liquids to mix. Pressure imparted on a product by the homogenizer is largely determined by pump pressure or flow diversion through valves and nozzles.
How does a homogenizer work?
A homogenizer works by breaking or subdividing the dispersed components into smaller particles and then distributing them evenly throughout the mixture. The action created by the homogenizer continuously disrupts the formation of large particles due to immiscibility and precipitation.
