The mirocentrifuges are small bench top centrifuges accommodating typically 1.5/2ml or 5ml tubes. The multipurpose centrifuges can accommodate larger tubes with the greatest capacity model capable of holding up to 4 x 1,000ml tubes. Eppendorf centrifuges have features such as soft close lids and quick lock rotors and are available in a number of formats - such as with and without refrigeration and with a foil keypad or knob settings control. With this choice, you are sure to find the right centrifuge. To see an overview of the microcentrifuge and multi purpose families, including max speed and capacity click here.

IVD certification

Eppendorf supply two versions of the centrifuges in their range - a general lab product (GLP) or an IVD - compliant version. If you are working in a clinical research setting or require a heightened level of regulatory approval then you will want to look at the IVD version. Otherwise, the GLP model will be sufficient.   You can view our range of Eppendorf centrifuges here.
