Hettich Mikro 220 High-Speed Microcentrifuge with Fixed-Angle Rotor and Biocontainment Lid

The Hettich Mikro 220 is a high-performance microcentrifuge designed for rapid sample processing in molecular biology, biotechnology, and clinical diagnostics. It achieves a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 31,500 x g and a top speed of 18,000 RPM, facilitating efficient separation of samples in microvolumes.

Key technical features include:

• Capacity for up to 60 tubes of 1.5/2.0 ml, and capability to centrifuge tubes up to 50 ml volume.
• Equipped with the Hettich 1195-A fixed-angle rotor featuring a biocontainment lid for safe handling of biohazardous materials with 24 x 2.0 ml tube capacity.
• Compact dimensions of 313 x 330 x 420 mm (HxWxD) and a weight of 21 kg, suitable for benchtop use.
• Low vibration and quiet operation minimize noise levels, enhancing laboratory environment comfort.

This centrifuge is widely adopted in biotechnology applications including gene editing workflows, molecular cloning, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, making it critical for sample preparation and analysis involving nucleic acids, proteins, and cellular extracts. Its adaptability with various accessories allows for versatile use in synthetic biology research and diagnostic laboratories focusing on precise biomolecular separation.
