Trouble-free Separation: Centrifuge Safety and Security

摘要

For almost all laboratories, increasingstringency in health and safety legislation requires that every possible step is taken to maximise equipment safety and security. For capital equipment, such as centrifuges, this is of paramount importance due to the sheer physical forces involved and the possible centrifugate hazards. Centrifuges though, are inherently safe with far fewer catastrophic failures than most people believe. This is mostly due to the extensive R&D work conducted by the manufacturers, and the introduction of easy-to-use features that make centrifugation safe, intuitive and trouble-free.
