  • 1 I can hear the fan running when the centrifuge is in idle mode, is that normal?

    Yes, it is normal. The fan in the centrifuge cools the chamber to prevent heat accumulation. The fan continues to run at a low speed when the rotor is not running.

  • 2 What is the purpose of the ventilation slits on the top of the centrifuge lid?

    These slits allow excessive heat to escape when the centrifuge is running at a high speed and this keeps the heat in the chamber to a minimum.

  • 3 Can I change the speed and time during centrifugation?

    Yes, you can change the speed and time during centrifugation.

  • 4 Can I do a slow (soft) ramp in this centrifuge?

    Yes. You can set the centrifuge to 9 different ramps. The acceleration and deceleration times can be set from 15 to 90 seconds.

  • 5 Will the temperature of the sample inside the chamber at maximum speed increase over time?

    The sample temperature (equivalent to the chamber temperature) will increase by no more than 12ºC above ambient temperature after 1 hour of centrifugation at maximum speed.

  • 6 Does the centrifuge need calibration?

    No. The rotor is driven by a brushless DC motor that does not need calibration.

  • 7 Does the centrifuge need regular maintenance?

    Yes, it does. Regular maintenance includes checks on possible chemical damage. It can extend the maximum operating life of the centrifuge.

  • 8 What kind of maintenance is necessary?

    The rotor and chamber should be cleaned with a moist cloth and neutral detergents after use and on a weekly basis. In the event of a spill, or contamination of the rotor and chamber by aggressive liquids, it should be cleaned immediately. The rotor and lid can be autoclaved. But never autoclave the rotor with the lid attached.

  • 9 如何使用BlueAmp DNA SafeDye?

    取1份BlueAmp DNA SafeDye,混合5份DNA样品。接着将样品上样到agarose凝胶上,然后再进行凝胶电泳。

  • 10 如何目试观察到BlueAmp DNA SafeDye染色的DNA

    以蓝光波长和紫外线波长照光后即可检测到信号。
