Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to New Misonix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the proposed issuance of up to 17,121,468 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 2, 2019 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Misonix, Inc., a New York corporation, Solsys Medical, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Solsys”), the Company, Motor Reincorp. Sub One, Inc., a New York corporation, Surge Sub Two, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Greg Madden, solely in his capacity as the representative of the Solsys unitholders. The Shares are included in a registration statement on Form S-4 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 29, 2019 (Registration No. 333-231797) (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”), to which this opinion is an exhibit.

In connection with the opinion expressed herein, we have examined such documents, records and matters of law as we have deemed relevant or necessary for purposes of such opinion.

As to facts material to the opinion and assumptions expressed herein, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and to the reference to Jones Day under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act, or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
