A Recommended Homogenizing Product in the Standard Operating Procedure for Chlorophyll-A Determination


PRO DPS-20 Multi-Sample Dual Processing Homogenizing System:

A Recommended Product in the Standard Operating Procedure for Chlorophyll-A Determination


PRO Scientific’s DPS-20 is an ideal alternative to the hand mechanical homogenizing and/or hand sonication of filters as part of the Chlorophyll analysis preparation.
The DPS-20 provides an automated controlled system for macerating or sonicating (or both).

ADVANTAGES
  • Every sample is processed exactly the same.
    • Human variability is eliminated.
  • Samples are processed in about one minute each.
  • Tech time can be freed up while the DPS-20 is automatically processing a tray of samples.
    • Many labs have multiple carousel trays ready to load upon completion of a run.
  • Specific programs can be easily repeated and recalled.
.

Any lab doing 20+ samples a week is a great candidate to automate this valuable but repetitive and time consuming step.

Labor efficiencies may quickly offset any cost to purchase the DPS-20.
