Choosing a centrifuge may seem like a technical process, but it's essential to ensuring the reliability of your analyses and the safety of your samples. Between the different models, speeds, capacities, and specific uses, it's difficult to navigate without a guide. In this article, we'll explain step by step how to choose the right centrifuge for your specific needs.
Understanding how a centrifuge works
A centrifuge is a device that uses centrifugal force to separate the components of a liquid mixture based on their density. Used in biology, chemistry, medicine, and food analysis laboratories, it is essential for isolating the solid and liquid phases of a sample.
What are the different types of juicers?
- General purpose centrifuge: for standard tube separation applications.
- Refrigerated centrifuge: ideal for temperature-sensitive samples such as proteins or enzymes.
- Micro-centrifuge: suitable for very small volumes, often used in molecular biology.
- Ultracentrifuge: for very high speeds and complex separations (DNA, viruses, lipoproteins).
Technical criteria for choosing the right centrifuge
- Capacity (volume of rotors) : depending on the number of samples processed.
- Maximum speed (RPM or RCF) : the higher it is, the faster the separation.
- Refrigeration : essential for heat-sensitive substances.
- Rotor type (fixed angle or pivoting) : influences the type of sedimentation desired.
- Noise level : important for daily laboratory use.
Why is the centrifuge a strategic piece of equipment?
A well-chosen centrifuge not only optimizes laboratory productivity, but also ensures stable results. It allows for rapid processing of large numbers of samples with minimal manual intervention.
How to adapt your choice to your needs?
Here are some questions to ask yourself before purchasing:
- Do you handle heat-sensitive biological samples?
- Do you work on large volumes or in series?
- Are you looking for a quiet model for a quiet environment?
- Do you want a rotor that is compatible with multiple tube types?
What budget should I plan for a centrifuge?
The price of a centrifuge varies depending on the speed, rotor type, refrigeration system, and brand. The following can be estimated:
- Entry level: from €80 to €500 for simple micro-centrifuges.
- Mid-range: from €500 to €2,000 for standard models with precise speed adjustment.
- High-end: more than €3,000 for professional refrigerated centrifuges and ultracentrifuges.
Where can I find a reliable, reconditioned juicer?
At Rewake, we offer a wide selection of reconditioned, tested, and guaranteed laboratory centrifuges . You benefit from the same reliability as a new model, at a cost up to 50% lower.
Tips for maintaining your juicer
- Clean the rotor regularly with a soft cloth and ethanol.
- Avoid overloading the tubes: respect the balance.
- Perform annual maintenance to check speed and braking.
- Store in a dry, dust-free environment.
