Sonication

Sonication is a process that uses high-frequency sound waves to create vibrations in a liquid. These vibrations generate tiny bubbles that rapidly expand and collapse, producing intense energy. This energy helps break apart cells, separate particles, or mix substances at a microscopic level. Sonication is commonly used in laboratories and industries for purposes like extracting materials from cells, sterilizing liquids, or dispersing particles evenly. It’s a precise, efficient method that leverages sound energy to achieve various scientific and industrial tasks without the need for mechanical force or chemicals.
