Eppendorf 5430 Benchtop High-Speed Centrifuge for Molecular Biology and Biotechnology

The Eppendorf 5430 centrifuge is a compact benchtop high-speed centrifuge designed for precise separation tasks in molecular biology, synthetic biology, and clinical diagnostics. It features a variable speed range from 100 to 17,500 rpm, enabling centrifugal forces up to 30,130 x g to efficiently pellet biomolecules and cells. Speed increments are finely tunable with 10 rpm steps up to 5,000 rpm, and then 100 rpm increments for higher speeds, allowing optimized protocols for diverse sample types and bioprocessing workflows.

Key operational parameters include:

This centrifuge is widely adopted in biotechnological research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines for tasks such as plasmid purification, cell harvesting, and nucleic acid separation. Its precision and speed control make it essential for molecular cloning workflows and reliable clinical sample processing. The Eppendorf 5430 supports various rotors (sold separately), enhancing versatility across applications in live-cell imaging preparations, fluorescence analysis, and general biomedical engineering research.
