The word homogenize refers to uniformity, that is, the ability to move a mixture from being formed by several phases to being formed by one phase, that is, to be uniform or homogeneous. Homogenization is related to the use of chemical substances, which are sought to mix until obtaining a uniform solution, by using physical means. Homogenization can be applied to a wide variety of samples, such as tissues, food, plants, soil, among others. For this reason it is very useful in many fields of science and industry, among these can be highlighted biology, agriculture, chemistry, cosmetic or food industry, among other disciplines.
In laboratories where it is necessary to perform the technique of homogenization, it is essential to have the necessary equipment to carry it out, these can be various, from very basic such as mortars with mallet, crushed, blenders or blade grinders, to more advanced equipment such as conventional and ultrasonic homogenizers. The choice of one team over another will depend on what you want to mix and the discipline in which it will be used.
Advantages of using homogenizers
The advantages of homogenization of substances depend on the type of industry or field in which it will be used, for example in biology, it makes it easier to study the internal components of the cell; on the other hand, in the case of the food industry it provides an increase in quality to the final product. For this reason, in every laboratory it is essential to have a homogenizer. The following are some of the benefits of using these computers:
- Food industry: the use of homogenizers can make food more attractive to the public by increasing its creaminess and improving its texture. For example, in the case of dairy products, applying homogenization prevents sedimentation, the formation of layers of whey and improves the texture of the product; in the case of juices or creams, it increases its viscosity. In general, consumers prefer products that look uniform and with good texture, over products that are divided into phases, the latter detracting from their quality and attractiveness.
- In the field of biology: the advantage of using homogenizers is that the components of the cell can be studied in depth, since with these equipment it is possible to disintegrate its components without harming them.
- In the field of chemistry: homogenizers can make solutions faster and can also optimize emulsions.
