Speciality labware for centrifuge
The Avanti 1L polypropylene and polycarbonate bottles build upon the versatility of the Avanti Series of centrifuges to help you gain even more control of your workflow. Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility under the ISO 9001 guidelines, this bottle material meets U.S. Pharmacopeia criteria for Class VI plastics.
1. Less wasted sample
There’s now no need to spin at the maximum bottle fill volume; our 1L bottles now support partial fills from 500 mL!
2. Higher speeds and temperatures
Achieves 8,000 rpm in the JLA‑8.1000 rotor, and 9,000 rpm in the JLA‑9.1000 rotor. Offers a maximum operating temperature of 38°C.
3. Improved chemical resistance
New polyetherimide AutoVent plug and polyphenylene sulfide cap provide greater chemical resistance.
4. Easy handling
With a diameter of 76 millimeters, the wide-mouth of this bottle allows easy access for removing pellets and cleaning. The cap handle and carrier simplify transport, and the cap is easily tightened.
5. Patented HarvestLine System liners
Single-use liners provide easy-to-use, low-cost sample containment, and are compatible with commonly used chemicals and solvents.
6. Improved BioSafety*
A protective O-ring provides better containment. Head space on the top of the bottle also helps prevent leakage. Plus, the bottles are BioCertified* when used with our JLA 8.1000 or JLA 9.1000 rotors and canisters.
What are the critical factors to consider when choosing a Rotor ?
Pick the right centrifuge Rotor and include in your consideration the speed, the capacity and the throughput.
Rotor Angle (Rotor/Tube): Fixed-angle versus Swinging-bucket rotors
Fixed-angle rotors with angles between 20 and 30 degrees are generally designed to give access to higher g force. The result is then a higher efficiency in the separation, but the pellet can be more difficult to recover.
Swinging-bucket rotors with angles of 90 degrees will generate limited maximum g force. This kind of rotor offer predictable pellet location, but lower efficiency. Versatility of the rotor can be improved by the use of adaptors.
Centrifuge Rotor Speed
Speed is critical for ensuring optimal pellet density, cell integrity, and run times.
Consider the speeds required for all planned applications, and balance between g-force and centrifugation run time.
Centrifuge Rotor Capacity and Throughput
Choose a rotor that affords the best balance between number of positions (samples) and the nominal capacity.
If you are working with large volumes (e.g., more than 6 Liters), consider k-factor and scaling out.
What is k-factor ? Spin more efficiently
K-factor represents the pelleting efficiency of a centrifugation system. The smaller the number, the more efficient the run.
Compare rotor efficiencies with "k-factor".
Most researchers refer to the maximum speed of a rotor to compare efficiency. This can be misleading as factors such as tube geometry and temperature contribute to rotor performance and must also be considered.
Separation is affected by maximum speed and radius which together throughput determine maximum g-force. However, particle pathlength also affects separation time. A simple measure of overall rotor efficiency incorporating both g-force and particle pathlength is the k Factor. Generally, the lower the k Factor, the shorter the run time. This makes the k-Factor one of the most important considerations when selecting a rotor.
