Eppendorf’s 24-place 5425 microcentrifuge features ergonomic operation and a large selection of rotors with a maximum speed of up to 21,300 × g, making them perfectly suited for all modern molecular biological applications in Eppendorf and PCR tubes from 0.2 to 5 mL.
The unique design of the air-cooled Centrifuge 5425 ensures particularly quiet operation for a comfortable working environment. Short runs up to twelve minutes are whisper quiet at an average of just 45 dB(A). These short runs are sufficient for the centrifugation steps of most routinely-used DNA/RNA purification kits. During longer runs, the cooling fan works efficiently to dissipate heat for the remainder of the run.
The 6 different rotors now cover an even wider range of applications, including molecular biology applications such as DNA/RNA or protein purification in 1.5 or 2.0 mL tubes or spin columns, pelleting of bacteria, yeast and cell cultures in 5 mL tubes, and microvolume protocols such as pre/post PCR and qPCR setups in 0.2 mL tubes, 8-well strips or divisible 96-well plates.
