Benchtop Centrifuge

A benchtop centrifuge is a laboratory device used to separate substances of different densities in a sample by spinning them at high speeds. Essentially, it creates a strong force that pushes heavier components, like cells or solids, to the bottom of a tube, while lighter liquids or particles remain on top. This separation is crucial in various fields, such as biology, chemistry, and medicine, for tasks like isolating DNA, purifying proteins, or preparing blood samples. Its compact size makes it suitable for use on a laboratory bench, facilitating efficient sample processing in research and clinical settings.
