New spin on mini centrifuges

Scie-Plas' first mini centrifuge – a compact, economical model which comes with three different rotors for use in a wide range of bioscience research applications- has been launched.

Designed with a small footprint to fit easily even where space is limited, the Scie-Plas Mini Centrifuge is very easy to use. An on/off switch enables the lid to be closed without starting the unit and when the lid is opened, the centrifuge stops automatically.

For added value and versatility, the Scie-Plas Mini Centrifuge includes three rotors: a 6-place rotor for 1.5ml tubes, a 0.2ml PCR strip rotor, and a 1-in x 3-in slide rotor. A maximum speed of 6,000rpm/2,000 x g is perfect for quickly spinning down samples, in micro gel filtration applications and for micro-volume centrifugation.

John Attwood, Scie-Plas Director of Sales and Marketing said: "The Mini Centrifuge has been developed to complement our wide range of electrophoresis reagents, buffers and equipment, from transilluminators and blotting units to gel documentation systems."
