Beckman Coulter announces new centrifuge rotors

Beckman Coulter has announced the development of a new rotor, designed for applications that use common, disposable conical tubes.

The JA-14.50 rotors extend the applications and flexibility of Beckman Coulter's Avanti centrifuge series, giving greater capacity and higher throughput.

This is achieved while maintaining the precision performance offered by products in the Avanti line.

According to the company, the new rotors are the only type available that can spin 50, 15, 5 and 1.5 mL conical tubes and 50, 15 and 10 mL round bottom tubes and bottles at their maximum speeds. 

"We're proud to introduce the JA-14.50 rotor – it improves workflows, saving scientists' time and is useful across a diverse array of applications where a variety of conical tube sizes are commonly used," said Randall Lockner, marketing manager at Beckman Coulter Life Sciences. 

He added users can expect the new scientific products to uphold the quality, performance and efficiency for which Beckman Coulter centrifugation devices are known.
