  5 Advantages of High-Pressure Homogenization for Cell Disruption Powerful High-pressure homogenization can be used to break apart stubborn cells more quickly, for instance by  reducing the number of passes required to disrupt the cells.  Link Scalable With high-pressure homogenization, you can scale from the R&D lab scale all the way up to a manufacturing  setup. Non-Chemical With the use of high-pressure homogenization, you can avoid the use of chemicals that may compromise your desired result from cell disruption. Thermally Managed The cooling available in a high-pressure homogenization is vital to efforts that require protein stability or are  otherwise thermosensitive. See this study for one example:  Link Multifunctional A high-pressure homogenization is not a single function instrument. In fact, it can be used for a variety of purposes. For example, making nanoparticles, nano emulsions, or re-sizing liposomes. To learn more about high-pressure ...

3 Questions to Choose a Liposome Extruder   3 Questions to Ask While Looking for a Liposome Extrusion Option   There are three questions to ask when you are choosing a liposome extrusion option. First, what pore size do you need? While a solo homogenizer reaches a liposome size of 20-30nm, any option with extrusion allows for more choice. Second, what power types do you have access to? The jacketed liposome extruders allow for gas power. An electric option is available if you go for a high-pressure homogenizer with or without an extruder. And manual options are available in the HandExtruder and HandGenizer.     Third, what scale of sample do you need to process? Genizer makes extrusion options from 1 mL to manufacturing scale. There are advantages coming from the various options as well to help you make your choice! R each out at  la@genizer.com  for more information.
