Homogenizer

Explore a range of laboratory homogenizers designed for efficient sample disruption, mixing, dispersion and homogenisation of biological, chemical, food and other laboratory materials.

Homogenizers apply high-speed mechanical shearing and mixing to break down particles, cells or tissue and produce a more uniform sample. They are available in different configurations to accommodate small-volume laboratory samples as well as larger processing requirements.

Depending on the design, homogenizers may use rotor-stator systems, high-speed blades, probes or other mechanical homogenising mechanisms. Different probe and rotor configurations can be selected according to sample volume, viscosity and the required degree of homogenisation.

Laboratory homogenizers are commonly used for tissue disruption, cell lysis, sample preparation, emulsification, dispersion, extraction, suspension preparation and mixing of difficult or heterogeneous samples.

They are suitable for research and development laboratories, biotechnology and pharmaceutical facilities, microbiology laboratories, food and beverage testing, chemical laboratories, environmental testing and quality control applications.

Depending on the model, features may include variable speed control, digital or analogue operation, adjustable processing time, interchangeable probes or rotor-stator assemblies and different sample-volume capacities.

When selecting a homogenizer, consider the sample type, sample volume, viscosity, required processing speed, homogenising mechanism, probe or rotor configuration, processing time, temperature sensitivity and intended application.
