Masiu fotometras 2MPProduser:Eppendorf

Equipment Information: 

Functions: 

  • Refrigeration system maintains stable temperature (–10 °C to +40 °
  • Adjustable speed up to ~21,300 × g (depending on rotor)
  • Automatic imbalance detection and shutdown
  • Programmable timer and run modes
  • Quiet operation with vibration control

Capabilities:

  • Equipped with the FA-24x2 fixed-angle rotor for up to 24 × 1.5/2 ml tubes
  • Precise speed and temperature control for sensitive samples
  • Fast acceleration and braking to shorten run time

Purpose / Usage:

  • Separation of cells, organelles, viruses, and other fractions
  • Extraction and purification of proteins, DNA, and RNA
  • Laboratory applications requiring centrifugation of small sample volumes

Applications:

  • Molecular biology, biochemistry, and microbiology laboratories
  • Biotechnology and pharmaceutical research

Operating Principle:

  1. Samples are loaded into tubes and placed in the rotor.
  2. The rotor spins at high speed, creating centrifugal force.
  3. Sample components sediment into different layers based on density.
  4. The refrigeration system maintains operating temperature, protecting samples from degradation.
