Product Introduction
LAWSON20-A Non-contact ultrasonic DNA interrupter uses isothermal and non-contact methods to disrupt, homogenize, and mix samples. It is used for sterile, ultra-low-volume crushing and can break chromosomes through centrifuge tubes. It is specially tailored for pre-processing of second-generation sequencing DNA samples and chromatin immunoprecipitation experimental samples. Compared to traditional probe ultrasonic homogenizers, which directly contact the probe with the sample and can only process one sample at a time, resulting in a long experimental cycle. When dealing with thousands of samples, it is necessary to reuse the same probe, which can easily cause sample cross-contamination. The non-contact sample can be crushed in a closed container without producing infectious aerosols. The ultrasonic probe does not contact the sample, avoiding cross-contamination. For laboratories that process multiple samples per day or handle valuable samples, non-contact ultrasonic DNA homogenizers have the advantages of high throughput, low sample loss, and no cross-contamination. It has gradually become an indispensable standardized tool for ChlP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) and DNA cutting research platforms.


Working principle
The non-contact ultrasonic gene disruptor uses a design that installs the ultrasonic generator at the bottom of the water tank. In traditional probe ultrasonic disruptors, the microflow phenomenon caused by ultrasonic waves can only occur in the area close to the probe. However, the non-contact ultrasonic cell pulverizer installs the ultrasonic generator at the bottom of the water tank, making the entire tank within the range of ultrasonic waves. The distribution of ultrasonic action is wide and balanced, reducing the formation of foam. During the experiment, the non-contact ultrasonic cell pulverizer's automatic and continuous rotation of centrifuge tubes ensures that the ultrasonic energy is distributed more evenly. During the experiment, the samples are placed in separate fully sealed centrifuge tubes, and there is no cross-contamination between the samples, avoiding the spread of aerosols.


Advantages
Traditional probe-type ultrasonic cell disruptors have direct contact between the probe and the sample, leading to metal ion contamination and long experimental cycles, as only one sample can be processed at a time. For multiple samples, the same probe must be reused, which can easily cause sample cross-contamination. Additionally, because the depth of the probe insertion and the energy distribution of each ultrasound are not consistent, the repeatability and accuracy of experimental results are affected. Furthermore, because a closed system cannot be used, the aerosols or foam produced during the ultrasonic process can spread into the environment, posing potential biological hazards. In contrast, the non-contact ultrasonic cell disruptor can detect 4-32 samples simultaneously, with high experimental efficiency. The probe does not require frequent operation, and each sample is in a separate fully enclosed test tube, avoiding cross-contamination. The use of a 4-degree water bath ensures a uniform distribution of ultrasonic energy and full ultrasonic action. The ultrasonic parameters can be flexibly set, and the experimental steps are standardized, resulting in good experimental repeatability and high reliability of the results.

Experimental Conclusion
1. For a 50 ul reaction system (in 0.2 ml thin-wall PCR tube), recommended sonication time for DNA fragments with sizes of 400-600 bp is 2 min; for fragments with sizes of 300 bp, it is 4 min; and for probe capture, it is recommended to sonicate for 7-10 min.
2. With the increase of sonication time, the size of sonicated fragments becomes smaller with certain regularity.
3. Under the same sonication conditions, the reproducibility and uniformity of the sonication effect are good.
4. The longer the sonication time, the smaller the sonicated fragments, and the lower the DNA gel recovery rate.
