Understand the operating instructions and related safety regulations of centrifuges. Before using the centrifuge, you must read the instruction manual of the centrifuge carefully and operate according to the requirements. At the same time, you must abide by relevant safety regulations, such as wearing personal protective equipment and not touching the rotor.
Check the status of the centrifuge. Before using the centrifuge, the state of the centrifuge must be checked, such as whether there is abnormal noise and whether the rotor is loose. To ensure that the running state of the centrifuge meets the requirements.
Use the correct centrifuge tube. Different centrifuges need to use different types of centrifuge tubes, and using incorrect centrifuge tubes may lead to centrifuge failure or deviation of experimental results. At the same time, centrifugal tubes must also meet the corresponding specifications and standards.
Balance the sample weight. The centrifuge must be balanced, otherwise the rotor will be unbalanced, causing unnecessary vibration and noise. When using centrifuges, the weight of sample tubes must be balanced. If multiple samples need to be centrifuged at the same time, the sample quantity in each sample tube must be kept the same.
Observe the centrifuge running time and speed limit. The running time and rotating speed of the centrifuge are limited and must be adjusted according to the requirements of the sample. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid the problem that the centrifugal tube breaks or the temperature is too high during high-speed centrifugation.
Pay attention to the maintenance and cleaning of centrifuges. Centrifuges must be maintained and cleaned frequently to ensure that they are in good working condition and kept clean and hygienic.
In a word, centrifuge is an important experimental instrument used in biochemical experiments and pharmaceutical fields, and it is necessary to pay attention to the relevant safety and operation specifications to ensure its safe and reliable use.
