2. Is the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 easy to operate and program?

Yes, the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 features a user-friendly touchscreen interface that allows intuitive control over all parameters such as speed, time, temperature, and acceleration/deceleration rates. Users can create and save multiple programs for repeated runs, saving time and improving consistency. Real-time displays show operating status and remaining run time. Its programmable functions reduce manual errors and increase reproducibility. The interface is designed to be accessible even for first-time users.

3. What kind of rotors and accessories are compatible with High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518?

The High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 supports a wide range of rotors, including fixed-angle and swing-out rotors, making it compatible with tubes, bottles, microplates, and PCR strips. This flexibility allows it to be used across multiple disciplines such as biotechnology, clinical diagnostics, and pharmaceuticals. Rotors are designed for easy loading and unloading, and many are autoclavable for sterilization. Quick-change rotor systems reduce downtime between procedures.

4. What types of samples can be processed using the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518?

The High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 is suitable for processing a wide variety of biological, chemical, and clinical samples including blood, plasma, serum, DNA/RNA, proteins, cell lysates, and microorganisms. Its high-speed capability and precise temperature control make it ideal for sensitive molecular biology procedures. It’s commonly used in applications such as pelletizing cells, isolating nucleic acids, separating lipoproteins, and purifying viruses. The adaptable rotor system allows for handling of tubes of different sizes and types.

5. How does the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 ensure temperature stability during operation?

The High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 uses a high-efficiency refrigeration system that actively monitors and adjusts the chamber temperature throughout the spin cycle. This ensures that the internal environment remains within the set temperature range, even during high-speed runs that generate heat. The system automatically compensates for thermal buildup, protecting sample integrity. Pre-cooling functionality allows the chamber to reach the desired temperature before loading samples.

6. Can the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 be used for DNA and RNA extraction?

Yes, the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 is ideal for DNA/RNA extraction due to its precision temperature control and high-speed capabilities.

7. Does the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 require regular maintenance?

The High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge ADHSC-518 requires routine maintenance including rotor inspection, cleaning, and calibration to ensure long-lasting and reliable performance.

8. What is a High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge?

A High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge is a laboratory instrument that combines high rotational speeds with temperature control to efficiently separate biological samples while preserving their integrity. It is essential for processing heat-sensitive samples by preventing thermal degradation during centrifugation. These centrifuges are widely used in molecular biology, clinical diagnostics, and biochemistry labs.

9. Why is refrigeration important in centrifugation?

Refrigeration helps maintain low temperatures during centrifugation, preventing heat buildup that can degrade temperature-sensitive samples like proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acids. It also minimizes enzymatic activity and preserves the biological function and structure of delicate molecules. This ensures accurate and reliable experimental results.

10. Can the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge maintain temperature during the entire run?

Yes, the High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge system continuously cools the rotor chamber to maintain the set temperature throughout the centrifugation process. This ensures that sensitive samples remain stable and protected from heat-induced damage. Consistent temperature control is critical for reproducible and accurate experimental results.
