The DPS-20 Dual Processing System is a revolutionary homogenizing product in the sample preparation field. It combines full automation of mechanical and ultrasonic/sonication homogenizing methods into a closed compact and timesaving unit. This system allows the use of each homogenizing method dependently or independently of each other within a programmable or manual mode.
By merging the advantages of both homogenizing methods, it leads to a faster and more efficient sample breakdown with minimal or no heat introduced while in a sound abating enclosure for noise reduction. Independent use of either homogenizing method has a large advantage over the standard mechanical or ultrasonic/sonication homogenizing equipment because of the automation. The automation design of this system allows for repeat processing and consistent results, which frees up a large amount of time and work in the laboratory.
The DPS-20 can be used with 1.5ml, 2ml, 15ml, 16ml, and 50ml tubes through its unique carousel tube rack designs. The design includes a bottom tray for the optional use as an ice bath. Up to 20 samples can be processed in one-run or include one of two rinse cycles for cross contamination concerns. Furthermore, additional carousel racks can be purchased for quicker load time.
