Description

Palm Micro Centrifuge(D1008)

PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES

1. Rapid Separation of Blood Components for Diagnostic Testing
  • Primary Use: Provides a compact, high-speed centrifuge that spins at up to 7000 RPM (2680 x G) to separate whole blood into plasma, serum, and cellular components for diagnostic laboratory analysis .
  • How it helps: For the laboratory technician and phlebotomist, the palm micro centrifuge enables rapid sample processing at the point of collection or in small clinical laboratories—reducing turnaround time for critical test results such as blood chemistry, coagulation studies, and infectious disease screening. For the patient, faster sample processing means receiving diagnostic results more quickly, enabling earlier diagnosis and treatment initiation.
2. Microfiltration and Sample Clarification for Urinalysis and Body Fluids
  • Primary Use: Facilitates rapid spin-down and microfiltration of urine, cerebrospinal fluid, and other body fluid samples to remove cellular debris and particulates before microscopic examination or chemical analysis .
  • How it helps: For the clinical laboratory scientist, the centrifuge’s continuous operation mode and tool-free rotor exchange streamline the preparation of body fluid samples—improving workflow efficiency and ensuring consistent sample quality for diagnostic testing. For the patient, proper sample clarification leads to more accurate test results, reducing the need for repeat specimen collection and allowing for confident clinical decision-making.
3. PCR Sample Preparation for Molecular Diagnostics
  • Primary Use: Accommodates 0.2 mL PCR tubes and 8-strip PCR tubes, enabling rapid spin-down of samples before polymerase chain reaction amplification for infectious disease testing .
  • How it helps: For the molecular biologist and clinical laboratory scientist, the D1008 centrifuge includes dedicated rotors for PCR tubes and strip tubes—ensuring that samples are properly mixed and free from air bubbles before thermal cycling. For the patient undergoing molecular testing for COVID-19, influenza, hepatitis, or other infectious diseases, reliable PCR sample preparation contributes to accurate diagnostic results that guide treatment decisions.
4. Cell Separation and Pellet Formation for Cytology
  • Primary Use: Generates sufficient centrifugal force to pellet cells from liquid samples, supporting cytological examination and cell-based diagnostic testing .
  • How it helps: For the cytotechnologist and pathologist, the compact centrifuge allows for rapid cell concentration from body fluids such as pleural fluid, ascitic fluid, and cerebrospinal fluid—enhancing the diagnostic yield of cytological examination. For the patient, improved cell recovery increases the sensitivity of cancer detection and infection diagnosis from fluid specimens.
