with direct probe sonication.
Indirect sonication
eliminates the need for a probe to come in contact with your sample.
This technique is often described as a high intensity ultrasonic bath, capable of processing
multiple sample vessels at one time.
Indirect sonication is most effective for very small samples because foaming and sample loss
are eliminated. Pathogenic or sterile samples are ideal for this method because aerosols and
cross contamination are prevented.
The Cup Horn and Microplate Horn deliver indirect sonication. Simply place your microtubes
or microtiter plate within the water filled reservoir and the sonic energy is transferred into
each individual well. These units are ideal for high throughput applications.
Examples of Indirect Sonication Horns include:
Microplate Horn
Cup Horn
