SonicMan™

High Throughput Sonication for DNA Shearing and Cell Lysis

The SonicMan is a high throughput multi-probe sonication instrument developed by MatriCal, Inc. configurable with 96, 384, and 1536 well formats. The Instrument is operated with a user-friendly touch screen interface. The SonicMan uses disposable gasketed pin lids to transfer sonic energy to each individual well and ensure no well to well cross contamination. Plates are placed on a extendable / retractable shuttle. The sonicater allows for power outputs between 100 and 1150 watts (12 watts/pin for 96 well formats and 3 watts/pin for 384 well formats at 100% power) and configurable time intervals from .1 to 20 seconds.

 

 

Features:

	Stand-alone instrument
	96, 384, and 1536 interchangeable disposable pinned lid technology
	Plate shuttle allows for direct integration with pick & place robotics.
	Variable power settings between 1 and 1150 watts.
	Variable sonication time intervals from 0.1 to 20 seconds.

Applications:

	Resuspend stored compounds in HTS
	Resolubilize compounds in synthesis
	Shear genomic DNA into small fragments for PCR amplification
	Extract target proteins, RNA/DNA, enzymes via cell lysis
	Mix low volume assays.
	Drive sonochemical reactions
	Transfect eukaryotic cells
	Tissue homogenization

Software:

 

A user friendly touch screen provides a real-time graphical display depicting parameters such as cycles, on/off time, and power setting profiles. Onboard password protected programs are easily defined using alphanumeric touch screen controls and simple create/save/edit functions The SonicMan is equipped with a network card to connect via RS232 or Ethernet directly to PC, for integrated automated system.

 

 

Pin Lids :

 

The SonicMan uses disposable inert gasketed pin lids to transfer sonic energy to each individual wells and ensure no well to well cross contamination. Matrical pin lids are available in variable lengths to accommodate different well dimensions and your preferred microplate.
