= Mini tube rotator = | = Sonic Dismembrator = | ||
The Fisherbrand Model 505 sonic dismembrator apparatus applies sound energy to agitate particles in a sample. In biological applications, sonication may be sufficient to disrupt or deactivate a biological material. For example, sonication is often used to disrupt cell membranes and release cellular contents. In nanotechnology sonication is commonly used for evenly dispersing nanoparticles in liquids. | |||

= | == pH meter == | ||
If you are planning on doing chemical fixation on biological samples you will probably need to make buffers and use a pH-meter. The VWR pH-meter (model pH 1000L) is located in building 314, in the Soft Mater (toxic) Lab and it is dedicated to “Soft Matter” related work. | |||
