Analytical Instruments

Homogenizers are the type of mixers that work on the principle of mechanical force to blend, disperse, emulsify, and dissolve two immiscible phases. The device works by reducing the particle size of large particles and shearing when it traps between fluid layers. Further pressure is reduced to perform cavitation which produces severe heat and pressure that breaks down them into smaller particles. They are widely used in pharmaceutical industries for drug development, nano-encapsulation, and particle size reduction. Biotechnology and cosmetic industries use homogenizers for cell disruption, extraction, and the production of emulsions.
