Refrigerated Centrifuges
A refrigerated centrifuge is a laboratory device used to separate components of a mixture based on their density. It spins samples at high speeds, creating a force that causes denser materials to move to the bottom of the container. The refrigeration feature helps maintain a low temperature during the process, which is crucial for sensitive biological samples, such as blood, plasma, or cell cultures.
These centrifuges are commonly used in various fields, including biotechnology, clinical laboratories, and research institutions. By controlling the temperature, they prevent degradation or denaturation of samples, ensuring accurate results and preserving the integrity of biological materials during separation.
