The following definitions apply in this manual:

1.2 The ML230 and the Covaris Process

The ML230 Focused-ultrasonicator is based on Covaris Adaptive Focused Acoustics (AFA) technology. This instrument is designed to
provide researchers an integrated stand-alone tool to be used in laboratory environment. The instrument is ideal for those who work
with DNA shearing and sample preparation.

The system is comprised of the

Treatment System

which delivers the acoustic energy to the sample, the

Safety System

which protects

users from inadvertently contacting the high intensity acoustic energy, and an embedded

Computer and Application Software

which

provides users an interface to control the device.

The Covaris Process

uses Adaptive Focused Acoustic energy to precisely control cavitation and acoustic streaming within the sample

treatment vessel in a non-contact, isothermal fashion. Focused acoustic energy is generated and delivered to individual samples. The
mechanical energy imparted on the sample results in a controlled series of compression and rarefaction events.
