A mini centrifuge that eliminates the need to change rotors when switching between microtubes and PCR strips, and provides twice the capacity of traditional products, is available from Cleaver.
The Multifuge features a Duorotor design that enables the simultaneous spinning of 12 microtubes and four PCR strips, which effectively doubles its capacity compared with most conventional mini centrifuges.
With near-silent operation and a fixed speed that produces 2,000 g, the centrifuge is suitable for quick spin-downs.
Simply close the lid and the unit quickly ramps up to 5,500rpm; open the lid and the rotor quickly decelerates to enable removal of samples.
The Multifuge can accommodate smaller 0.5 and 0.6ml tubes, and can also be used with low-cost optional adapters.
At 14cm wide x 11cm high and weighing 1.1kg, the ultra-compact Multifuge is a truly personal-sized centrifuge that will fit within on the smallest benchtop space.
