What color coded test tubes are used in centrifuge?
serum tubes
What are the parts of a centrifuge and their functions?
A centrifuge has holes to insert the centrifuge tubes in, a cap to secure the tubes inside, and a lid to protect both the samples and experimenter in case of malfunction. There is also typically a way to set the centrifuge speed and a power switch to turn the centrifuge on and off.
Is a centrifuge balanced before turning it on?
Add tubes to your centrifuge basket arranged as factors of the total number of spaces. For instance, if you have a twelve hole centrifuge, you can add tubes in every second hole, for six tubes in total; in every third hole for four tubes in total, in every fourth hole for three tubes in total; or every sixth hole for two tubes. You can combine these factors one way to place five tubes in your centrifuge basket - a balanced array of two and a balanced array of three tubes. As well as that, you can arrange the gaps in your centrifuge basket the same way, so you can have five , four, three or two tubes left out of a twelve hole basket. In that way it is possible to place two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten or twelve tubes safely in a twelve hole centrifuge basket.
What is the function of the centrifuge step?
To achieve separation. What were you putting into the centrifuge? I know in Biochem usually centrifugation is a preparative step performed to isolate a single organelle of a cell. But centrifugation can also be analyical, for instance if you wanted to measure the density of whatever substance is in the tube.

What is centrifuge swing-out rotor?
A Centrifuge Swing-out Rotor is a part of a centrifuge which attaches to the motor and holds the sample tubes. A swing-out, as opposed to a Fixed Angle rotor, has holders that move from vertical to horizontal as the centrifuge speeds up.
How do you describe a centrifuge tube?

Where in the centrifuge tubes would you find the heavy parts of the blood?
The bottom as it is more dense
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.
What is clinical centrifuge?
Clinical centrifuge are devices used for clinical applications like blood collection tubes. These laboratory equipment are driven by motor and spins liquid samples at high speed.
What is centrifuge made made of?
Mostly steel. The tubes can be anything (strong enough) : glass, steel, aluminum, etc
What color tubes have serim in them?
The Red/Gray color tubes have serum in the serum separating tubes.
