Similar to their benchtop and floor cousins, mini centrifuges are used in environmental, chemical, molecular biology and medical research, and are an essential for most any lab. Typically designed to spin down microcentrifuge or PCR tubes, they are compact, affordable, and work quickly. Things to consider are max RPM/RCF, tube capacity, and cooling functionality if working with temperature-sensitive samples.

Reliable and easy-to-use, the Prism™ Mini is compact and economical, allowing each workstation to be equipped with a "personal" centrifuge. The Prism™ Mini can be used for a wide range of molecular biology separations and quick spins. The centrifuge was designed to be extremely compact with an exceptionally small footprint. It includes 2 quick release interchangeable rotors, which spin up to 6000 RPM’s. The electronic brake and self opening lid allow for quick deceleration to reduce handling time. The Prism™ Mini’s maintenance-free drive is remarkably quiet and the unique design allows for excellent air-flow, to protect temperature-sensitive samples.
Features New rotor designs for increased sample capacity Self opening lid enables single-handed operation Quick release rotor hub allows for easy rotor exchange Built in braking system for rapid sample processing... Read More |
