  • APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATION OF FLUID SAMPLE PROCESSING USING ULTRASONIC WAVES
    Publication number: 20130199298
    Abstract: A system for processing fluid samples includes a centrifuge assembly in combination with a transducer assembly, where one or more sample containers for containing fluid samples are connected to the centrifuge assembly. The centrifuge assembly is configured to rotate about a centrifuge-assembly axis in a rotating configuration of the system, and the transducer assembly is configured to direct ultrasonic energy towards the one or more sample containers in an ultrasonic-processing configuration of the system.

  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR USING ULTRASONIC RADIATION FOR CONTROLLED FRAGMENTATION OF CHAINS OF NUCLEIC ACIDS
    Publication number: 20130092524
    Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to controlled fragmentation of genetic samples that include chains of nucleic acid. Waveform inputs to a transducer configured as Fresnel Annular Sector Actuator (FASA) are used to focus acoustic energy at the genetic sample in a controlled fragmentation process that reduces the genetic sample to a desired average fragment size for the resulting chains of nucleic acid.
