Precise benchtop ultrasonicator delivering 1.5–450 W peak power for DNA shearing and tissue sample prep in biotechnology research.
The Covaris ML230 Focused Ultrasonicator is a benchtop instrument utilizing Adaptive Focused Acoustics (AFA) technology, delivering controlled and reproducible ultrasonic energy to biological samples. Engineered for molecular biology and biotechnology applications, it supports simultaneous processing of 1 to 8 samples with sample volumes ranging from 5 to 50 µL, optimal for next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows.
Key technical specifications include:
The instrument features an automated water management system maintaining consistent acoustic conditions and a built-in touchscreen interface for streamlined workflow setup, method import/export via USB, and real-time process monitoring. This reduces operator variability and cross-contamination risks, making it essential for protocols including DNA shearing for NGS, chromatin shearing for ChIP assays, RNA extraction, protein extraction from tissues, cell lysis, homogenization, and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sample processing.
Notably, the ML230 operates with non-contact acoustics, enhancing sample integrity and reliability for sensitive molecular diagnostics workflows and bioprocessing tasks. The system's compact footprint suits constrained lab spaces, making it widely adopted in synthetic biology, molecular cloning workflows, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
Accessories and consumables, including various AFA microTUBEs and tube racks, are application-specific and available separately to customize for research needs. The instrument comes fully tested, serviced, and warranted, with technical support and training options to ensure optimal integration into clinical diagnostics and biotechnology research environments.
This focused ultrasonicator is a critical tool for laboratories engaged in gene editing, molecular diagnostics, biomanufacturing, and live-cell imaging sample preparation, providing reproducible ultrasonic processing that enhances the quality and throughput of advanced biotechnological applications.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
