What is the structure and function of a serofuge?

A serofuge is a small centrifuge specifically designed to separate serum from cells and to complete blood cell washing procedures. Like a centrifuge, a serofuge has holes to insert the centrifuge tubes in, a lid to protect both the samples and experimenter in case of malfunction, and a way to set the centrifuge speed and way to turn the centrifuge on and off.


How do you build a centrifuge?

To build a centrifuge you first need to decide what G force you need to generate. This is a function of the distance that the unit to be centrifuged is from the center axis and the rotational frequency (RPM). A major difficult you might run into is balancing the unit you make. The basic components of a centrifuge are the motor, case, rotor, and shield. The rotor holds the tubes, the case holds the motor in place and is a sturdy base, the shield protects you from any debri that could be thrown from an unbalanced rotor. If you MUST build a centrifuge you will need to learn to machine an accurate and balanced rotor. You are really just better off buying one. If you are in search of a cheap and simple centrifuge for playing with, use some tubing and an egg beater like these students did: http://www.rsc.org/delivery/_ArticleLinking/DisplayHTMLArticleforfree.cfm?JournalCode=LC&Year=2008&ManuscriptID=b809830c&Iss=Advance_Article
