The svedberg unit is a measure of sedimentation rate used for particles, typically macromolecules like ribosomes. It is a non-SI unit, representing the sedimentation coefficient of a particle in a centrifugal field during ultracentrifugation. The svedberg unit is named after Theodor Svedberg, a Swedish chemist who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1926 for his work in this area.
