Small Equipment in the PBF | Back to PBF

 

The PBF can be considered as adry lab and therefore most sample preparations are done at the user’s lab. ThePBF has however, small equipment used for measuring, mixing and routineanalysis of samples. The PBF has an assortment of small equipment listed below:

 

UV/Vis and Fluorescence Nanodrop

The Nanodrop ND 1000 UV/Vis Spectrophotometer and the ND3000 Fluorescence enable highly accurate analysis of 1-2uL samples with remarkable reproducibility. There are no cuvettes needed and this increases sample analysis throughput.

VWR Galaxy* Mini Microcentrifuge

Mini Microcentrifuge

The VWR Galaxy Mini Micro centrifuge is the smallest unit in the Galaxy line. Its small footprint and compact design make it ideal for personal use, either on the bench or in a cold room.

Two rotors are supplied with the Galaxy Mini. The standard rotor holds six 1.5/2.0mL micro tubes. Adapters supplied with the unit allow spinning of smaller tubes as well. The strip rotor accepts two 8.0x0.2mL strip tubes, or sixteen individual 0.2mL tubes.

Operation of the centrifuge is simple. Upon closing the lid, the rotor quickly accelerates to 6000rpm. The resulting g-force is perfect for quick spin downs from the caps and walls of tubes as well as microfiltration’s.

Vortex-Genie 2Vortex Gene 2

 

 

Used for rapid mixing and can be operated at variable speed control allowing slow speed shaking action up to high speed vortexing. Several attachments are available which are designed to produce different mixing actions. Users can choose the correct action for each application.

 

Eppendorf Centrifuge 5417R
