Microfluidiser has plug-and-play
convenience
M-110P easily enables the production of nano-suspensions and nano-emulsions, as well as liposomal encapsulation and cell disruption, with the fewest number of passes
Microfluidics introduces its portable M-110P Microfluidizer processor, a bench top lab machine that requires no compressed air or cooling water Designed to operate reliably, quietly and efficiently at up to 30,000psi process pressure, the portable M-110P only requires a standard 20amp, single-phase household electrical outlet and can easily be incorporated into any laboratory setting

Containment unit for microfluidiser processors
The hermetically sealed, stainless steel containment isolator fully encloses the processor's high-pressure processing area, so it is safe to mix toxic or potent products.
Additionally, the M-110P allows flow rates between 110-155ml/minute at any process pressure, which is a higher flow rate than any comparable, competitive product.
This flow rate enables the efficient processing of pharmaceutical formulations, fine chemicals, and biological material ranging from simple oil-in-water emulsions to highly immiscible solids-in-liquid suspensions.
All results from the M-110P machine are guaranteed to be scaleable to pilot and/or production volumes.
The M-110P comes with a programmable logic controller (PLC) that manages on board operation including audio-visual alarms, alarm acknowledgment and silencing, and motor starter interlocks.
In the event that an operating parameter is out of tolerance, this PC-based system will alert users to respond.
The PLC also makes available ten digital I/O connections, as well as an analogue channel for added flexibility.
Each processor can be customised depending on specific formulation parameters and is available with options for external controls, such as automated alarms and auto shutdown.
Additionally, the M-110P offers options for the internal and external monitoring of several variables including temperature and pressure.
The M-110P can be fitted with optional communication modules that allow the operator to monitor and control it remotely, as in a factory automation setting.
