5.2 Sonication fluid
A solution made from water and a special ultrasound agent is used
as the sonication fluid. Drinking water or demineralised water can
be used for the water.
Water without any additives is unsuitable for sonication. Use of
demineralised water without an ultrasound agent leads to
increased erosion of the ultrasonic oscillating tank.
The ultrasound agent used must foster cavitation and be biode-
gradable, easy to dispose of, material-compatible and long-lasting.
BANDELIN recommends ultrasound agents from the TICKOPUR,
TICKOMED and STAMMOPUR product ranges from DR. H. STAMM
GmbH.

Observe the information on dosing provided by the ultrasound
agent manufacturer. Please refer to the dosing table for the
required quantities of ultrasound agent and water. See chapter
9 Dosing table
.
You can calculate the quantities yourself in the same way as the
following example:
10 l ready to use solution, 2.5%:
10 l x 2,5 % = 0,25 l agent
100 %
10 l - 0,25 l = 9,75 l water
