Mini basket centrifuge machine

1. Applications

• Sample separation in biological, clinical and biochemical labs (e.g., cell debris, protein isolation) 
• Blood component processing (e.g., plasma/serum separation) 
• PCR and molecular biology prep (spin-down of reaction mixtures) 
• Microbiology and cell culture workflows (pelleting of microorganisms) 
• Educational and teaching labs for demonstrations
• Routine clinical diagnostics (e.g., separation of small-volume samples) 

2. Compliance Standards

Mini centrifuges typically conform to established laboratory equipment safety standards and best practices, such as:

• CE marking and electrical safety compliance (varies by manufacturer)
• IEC/EN 61010-1 – Safety requirements for laboratory equipment (electrical)
• ISO 13485 conventions for medical laboratory device quality systems (product dependent)
• Built-in lid-lock and imbalance detection for operator safety 

3. Product Description

A Mini Basket Centrifuge Machine (often called a mini centrifuge or micro centrifuge) is a small, tabletop laboratory instrument designed to rapidly spin liquid samples at high speeds to separate components based on density. Centrifugal force causes denser materials (pellets) to move outward and lighter supernatant fluids to remain above. These machines are compact, easy to operate, and ideal for handling small volumes of microtubes (0.2–2 mL) or similar sample containers.
