Instru Centrifuge
Intro
The basic purpose of a centrifuge if to use rotational force to precipitate solids in the bottom of a vial. It can be use to separate solids from a liquid or to do analytic tests on some material weights. More on centrifuges: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge
At hackuarium we have two centrifuge: A table one used to centrifuge solutions in 1.5ml aliquots and a large one to centrifuge 50ml Falcon Tubes.
