Microcentrifuge

A microcentrifuge is a small laboratory device used to spin tiny liquid samples at very high speeds. This rapid spinning causes components within the sample, such as cells, proteins, or DNA, to separate based on their density. Denser materials settle at the bottom as a pellet, while lighter liquids stay on top. Microcentrifuges are essential in research and diagnostics for quickly isolating specific components from small sample volumes, enabling detailed analysis or further processing in scientific and medical laboratories.
