Description
It’s Purpose:
The Sorvall CW2+ Cell Washing Centrifuge is a laboratory instrument designed for washing cells and removing unwanted substances from cell suspensions. The centrifuge is primarily used in biomedical research and clinical laboratories, particularly in areas such as cell culture, immunology, and molecular biology.
Acme’s Summary:
The centrifuge uses a high-speed spinning motion to separate cells from liquid suspensions. The cells are then washed with a buffer solution to remove unwanted substances, such as excess antibodies or other cell culture media components. This process can be repeated several times, depending on the application and the desired level of purity.
