In terms of appearance, centrifuges are mainly divided into benchtop centrifuges and floor standing centrifuges. Benchtop centrifuge is also commonly referred to as tabletop centrifuge.
Benchtop centrifuges are typically small enough to fit on a laboratory bench and are commonly used for various applications in life sciences, such as cell culture, protein research, DNA/RNA isolation, and blood separation.They can be used with different types of tubes and rotors, allowing them to accommodate different volumes and types of samples.Some benchtop centrifuges also offer features like variable speed control, temperature control, and various safety mechanisms to ensure efficient and safe operation.
