Ultrasonic head assembly, to break down cells, comprises a piezo element to generate ultrasonic waves which are carried through intermediate elements to a sonotrode for direct delivery into the samples in a micro-titration plate

摘要

Ultrasonic head assembly (3), to break down cells or cellular materials, comprising a piezo element (4) to generate ultrasonic waves which are transmitted through intermediate elements (5,6) to a sonotrode (7), for delivery to the samples in a micro-titration plate, is new. Ultrasonic head assembly (3), to break down cells or cellular materials, comprising a piezo element (4) to generate ultrasonic waves which are transmitted through intermediate elements (5,6) to a sonotrode (7), for delivery to the samples in a micro-titration plate, is new. A number of sonotrodes can be arranged in a row. The intermediate elements do not give any spread between the piezo element which generates the ultrasonic waves and the sonotrode which delivers them directly into the samples.
