Homogenizers come in a variety of configurations, including handheld and bench-mounted models with a variety of probes to match the correct sample type, and test tube strikers for clinical and tissue applications

As it does with most lab instruments and equipment, the sample plays a major role in which evaporator will be best for your lab

Linda and her team examine some of the best practices when purchasing a rotary evaporator

The sample type and solution into which it is placed can have an effect on the type of lab microwave used

The type of sample—usually its hardness or malleability—can have a significant impact on the type of mill or grinder needed

It all comes down to the sample

As volumes can vary from sample to sample, purchasing the right size of stirrer or mixer is one important consideration
