Ultrasonic topic: "The Advantages of Ultrasonic Extraction"
Ultrasonic extraction or sono-extraction is a process intensifying technology, which works by the coupling of high power ultrasonics into a slurry of plant or cell tissue. Hielscher Ultrasonics supplies reliable ultrasonicators for cell disruption and extraction from small lab samples up to high volumes in industrial processing. The appeal of the ultrasonically assisted extraction lies in the non-thermal treatment of the material, its easy application and the scaleability from test to production scale. Hielscher’s ultrasonic devices generate high intense ultrasound that can be exactely controlled to your process requirements.
