PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES

1. Rapid Separation of Blood Components for Diagnostic Testing
  • Primary Use: Provides a compact, high-speed microcentrifuge that spins up to 12,000 rpm (6,708 × g) to separate whole blood into plasma, serum, and cellular components for diagnostic laboratory analysis .
  • How it helps: For the laboratory technician and medical technologist, the high-speed palm 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. PCR Sample Preparation and Molecular Diagnostics
  • Primary Use: Accommodates 0.2 mL PCR tubes, 44 × 0.2 mL PCR single tubes, and 4 × 0.2 mL PCR 8-strip 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 D1012U centrifuge includes dedicated rotor configurations 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.
3. Microfiltration and Sample Clarification for 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.
4. Cell Separation and Pellet Formation
  • Primary Use: Generates sufficient centrifugal force (up to 6,708 × g) 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.
