MiniSpin: Compact and Powerful Mini-Centrifuge for Maximum Precision
The MiniSpin from Eppendorf is a high-performance mini-centrifuge designed to combine top-tier performance with a minimal footprint. This compact device is ideal for laboratories with limited space while delivering fast and reliable results. Thanks to its ergonomic design and advanced features, the MiniSpin is an essential tool for researchers working on daily centrifugation tasks, especially in the field of molecular biology.
The MiniSpin is perfectly suited for molecular biology applications requiring quick and precise separations. It can accommodate up to 12 tubes of 1.5/2.0 mL or two PCR strips simultaneously, providing great flexibility for various types of samples. It reaches a maximum speed of 13,400 rpm, generating a relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 12,100 x g. These speeds make it ideal for applications such as nucleic acid extraction, protein separation, and the preparation of cell suspensions.
The MiniSpin guarantees rapid results while ensuring reproducibility, a crucial requirement in research laboratories. This reproducibility is further enhanced by the ability to precisely adjust the centrifugation parameters, allowing protocols to be standardized and minimizing variations between experiments.
One of the key features of the MiniSpin is its intuitive digital display, which makes it easy to adjust the speed and duration of centrifugation cycles. Thanks to this display, users can fine-tune the settings with precision, ensuring reproducible results and controlled cycles. Whether it's for a quick spin or longer cycles, the device easily adapts to the laboratory's needs.
The MiniSpin from Eppendorf is designed with a constant focus on safety and reliability. Its robust structure includes a metal rotor, inner lid, and latch, providing optimal safety during centrifugation cycles, even at high speeds. These metal components also ensure greater durability, reducing the risk of wear and extending the device's lifespan in demanding laboratory environments.
The MiniSpin is also equipped with an automatic lid-opening system at the end of each centrifugation cycle. This feature ensures quick access to samples while preventing excessive heating, which is crucial for temperature-sensitive samples. By avoiding overheating, the MiniSpin helps maintain the integrity of biological samples, ensuring precise results.
One of the main characteristics of the MiniSpin is its minimal footprint. With compact dimensions of 22.5 x 23.0 x 13.0 cm and a lightweight design of 3.7 kg, it fits perfectly even in laboratories with limited space. This compact size allows researchers to install the MiniSpin directly on their workstation, providing easy access without taking up valuable workspace needed for other equipment. Its light weight also makes it easy to move from one bench to another as needed.
Despite its compact size, the MiniSpin does not compromise on performance. It features an optimized ventilation system that ensures a constant airflow, preventing the machine from overheating and protecting sensitive samples. This carefully controlled airflow maintains a stable temperature throughout the cycle, which is crucial for preserving the quality of samples, particularly in heat-sensitive experiments.
The MiniSpin from Eppendorf is much more than just a centrifuge. It is a compact, efficient, and safe device designed for maximum performance in small spaces. Its intelligent design, high speed, and safety features make it a valuable asset for any laboratory handling molecular biology applications or routine centrifugation tasks. With its reliable performance, intuitive operation, and ergonomic design, the MiniSpin is an ideal solution to meet researchers' needs while optimizing workspace and energy efficiency.
