Short Description: Centrifuge 5804R is a compact refrigerated benchtop centrifuge from Eppendorf, designed for biological and molecular samples.
Produser: Eppendorf
Equipment Information:
Functions:
- Refrigeration (–9 °C to +40 °C) ensures stable sample temperature
- Adjustable speed and RCF up to ~20,000 × g
- Automatic rotor recognition and imbalance detection
- Programmable run cycles, timer, and multi-user program memory
Capabilities:
- Includes fixed-angle rotor with adapters for 15 ml and 50 ml tubes
- Swing-bucket rotors available for 15 ml and 50 ml tubes as well as microplates
- Precise control of speed and temperature for long separations
Purpose / Usage:
- Separation of cells and cellular fractions
- Purification of proteins, DNA/RNA, and other biomolecules
Applications:
- Molecular biology, microbiology, biochemistry, and pharmaceutical laboratories
- Clinical research and diagnostic centers
Operating Principle:
- Liquid samples are placed in tubes and loaded into the rotor.
- The rotor spins at high speed, generating centrifugal force.
- Due to density differences, sample components (cells, organelles, molecules) sediment into separate layers within the tube.
- The refrigeration system maintains a constant set temperature, protecting samples from degradation.
