The Covaris ME220 Focused‐Ultrasonicator is a benchtop sample preparation system using high-frequency acoustic energy for precise, reproducible sample lysis, nucleic acid shearing, and biomolecule extraction. It handles low volumes with tight control over temperature and process parameters, making it suitable for next-generation sequencing (NGS), proteomics, and FFPE/tissue sample workflows.
🔬 Key Features:
Focused Acoustic Energy (AFA): Treats samples in closed, non-contact vessels to minimize contamination and heat-induced damage.
Throughput & Volume Flexibility: Processes 1 to 8 samples per batch; sample volumes from ~15 µL to ~1 mL.
Treatment Power: ~20 W average incident power; peak incident power higher under specific settings.
Temperature Control: Programmable temperature range from ~+6 °C to +40 °C for isothermal processing.
Compact Footprint: Approximate size ~18.8 × 18.8 × 14.8 inches (≈ 48 × 48 × 37.5 cm); suitable for benchtop use.
Wide Applications: Suited for cell lysis (mammalian, bacterial, yeast), chromatin shearing, DNA & RNA extraction (including from FFPE), cfDNA extraction, dried blood spots, and proteomics sample prep.
