Analytical Ultracentrifuges
An analytical ultracentrifuge (AUC) enables real-time monitoring of particle behavior during sedimentation. Specifically, it’s a specialized centrifuge equipped with integrated optical detection systems, which supports analysis of molecular weight, hydrodynamic, and thermodynamic properties of proteins or macromolecules without the need for standards.

Applications
Applications Supported by Our Centrifuges
- Our high-capacity centrifuges are employed in various industrial and research settings, enabling separation and processing of large volumes of samples, such as harvesting cells and bacteria, the removal of cell debris, and industrial-scale purification of proteins or drug delivery vectors.
- Our benchtop centrifuge systems are used extensively for separating and purifying subcellular components, smaller particles and molecular mixtures in liquid media.
What is centrifugation?
Centrifugation uses centrifugal force to separate components of heterogeneous samples based on their density gradients or their speed of movement in a centrifugal field. This enables efficient purification and concentration of samples. Its versatility and scalability make it a valuable tool in various fields, including biology, chemistry, and pharmaceutical research.
How is centrifugation used in biology and microbiology research?
Centrifugation plays a crucial role in biology and microbiology research by facilitating the separation/sedimentation and concentration of cells and cellular components (e.g., organelles and proteins), from complex mixtures, enabling isolation and purification of specific biomolecules—and drug carriers—for further analysis.
Centrifugation is also used to remove impurities, aggregates and other unwanted contaminants from samples, which is a critical process in pharmaceutical production.
