cheap trick

A home made hand held sonicator (see photo) to remove clogs from the
sorter's nozzle tip. It did the trick for me a few times (with intentional
obstruction of the stream). I "invented" it a week ago and since we filter
all samples with a 40 micron strainer clogs are rare. The investment is
about $ 80 into a Sonicare toothbrush.... and you need to convince your
spouse that one of the measuring spoons is superfluous in the kitchen.

Any further improvement is welcome. It's also good to remove salt crystals
in the morning.

Cheers, Akos (Biogen)
