What is the difference between a benchtop centrifuge and a microcentrifuge?
Benchtop centrifuges generally support larger sample volumes, more rotor options and broader laboratory applications than microcentrifuges. This makes benchtop centrifuges suitable for routine laboratory processes, clinical analysis and higher throughput workflows.
Why choose a benchtop centrifuge with multiple rotor options?
Benchtop centrifuges with multiple rotor configurations offer greater flexibility for laboratories processing different sample types. Depending on the application, users can choose swing-out rotors for blood tubes or fixed-angle rotors for higher centrifugal forces.
