Centrifuges are essential in medical labs, helping with diagnostics, research, and clinical tasks. By spinning samples at high speeds, they separate substances like blood components, cell cultures, and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). In this guide, we’ll highlight popular centrifuge models from Eppendorf, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Beckman Coulter. Plus, we’ll introduce DES Technologies’ centrifuge buyback program, which allows labs to upgrade equipment while getting the best return on investment.
