Microfuge Is Powerful, Compact, and Easy-To-Use

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 24 Oct 2007
A new benchtop microfuge is powerful, compact, and easy-to-use.

The Microfuge 16 has a small footprint, weighs just 6.4 kg and is less than 176 mm high. More...
The microcentrifuge spins quietly at 16,163 x g (14,800 rpm) for fast pelleting or isolation of DNA, RNA, proteins, and viruses. It can operate in a cold-room environment, as an alternative to refrigerated microcentrifuges. The system's 24-place rotor delivers high-throughput capability and spins microtubes from 0.2 to 2.2 ml in volume. An auto-lock system provides hands-free closure and opening and ensures that the centrifuge run will not start until the unit is properly closed.

A product of Beckman Coulter (Nyon, Switzerland) the Microfuge 16 features a large, easy-to-read display with push-button control that facilitates programming. The new instrument incorporates the company's robust, brushless induction drive and is backed by the company's service and support program.

The Microfuge 16 and the OptimaMAX XP Ultrafuge were both launched as Beckman Coulter celebrated the 60th anniversary of the company in the centrifuge business.
