Homogenization of creams, lotions, vegetable glycerin or some other viscous material


PRO Scientific deflector heads are specifically designed to enhance the homogenization of larger volume and higher viscosity materials such as creams, lotions, oils, gels and much more.  They are used regularly by cosmetic, nutrition, paint and oil companies.
PRO Deflector Head
The deflector head design creates vertical movement of heavy materials which would otherwise stand stagnant, and promotes increased flow on larger volume samples.

12/04/15 - PRO Scientific Homogenizers peer reviewed news


We are so proud to be a part of our customer's valuable research. 
We know how hard you work on your research and publications.  




Our customers have been really busy!
Here is where PRO Homogenizers are being referenced this week, take a look...

Freeze dried sprouts in acidified cold methanol
· SMCSO content was determined following a previous determined SOP  
· Two hundred grams of freeze-dried powder were extracted overnight in 30 ml acidified cold methanol
· After homogenization by a high-speed PRO Scientific Homogenizerssamples were incubated at
Liophylized sprouts
· 200 mg of the liophylized samples were extracted with 5 ml hot methanol 70 % for 5 min at
80 °C, 
· Homogenized using a high-speed PRO400 tissue homogenizer 
· Centrifuged at 5,000 rpm for 20 min using a Hettich centrifuge EBA20

    Tumor - Hepatocellular carcinoma 
    · Tissues harvested from experimental animals were homogenized with a handheld tissue homogenizer, Bio-Gen PRO200 in RIPA buffer

      Essential oils - water oil emulsions  
      ·  W/O (water/oil) emulsion was formed between organic solution with TDI oregano/sage oil and aqueous solution of 1% PVA tween 80 as a stabilizer. 
      · The emulsification was carried out at 6000 rpm for 30 min with PRO benchtop homogenizer 
      · Subsequently HDMI was added, the stirring speed was decreased to 600 rpm.

        Mouse liver samples
        ·              Liver samples were homogenized in 300 μL ice-cold RIPA buffer (Pierce Biotech- nology) containing complete
        protease inhibitor cocktail tablets and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail tablets

        Journal of Molecular Neuroscience 
        ·              PRO250 Homogenizer was used
        ·              Samples were also sonicated, making this an ideal application for the DPS-20 Two- Step Homogenizer, mechanically homogenizer and sonicate with one system

        Do bead mills provide better cell lysis compared to rotor stator homogenizers?

        The short answer is no.


        Mechanical homogenizers are more than capable of providing the same level of cell lysis in a fraction of the time it takes a bead mill. 

        Most mechanical homogenizing is done in a matter of seconds with ZERO heat produced and you can continue on with your same tubes you are processing in, no need to buy special tubes and beads! 
        The same piece of PRO homogenizing equipment can homogenize both soft and hard tissue samples.
