The fixed-angle rotor F-35-30-17 can be loaded with 15 ml Falcons
®
and 15 ml round bottom
centrifuge tubes.
Before centrifuging the Falcons
®
, place their plastic adapters in the tube holders. The adapters
prevent the Falcons
®
from being destroyed. For the centrifugation of round bottom tubes made
of glass, round rubber pads are required to prevent the tubes from cracking. Make sure a rubber
pad is placed under each glass tube before centrifuging.
The maximum load capacity for Falcons
®
is 20 x 15 ml; for 15 ml round bottom centrifuge tubes
30 x 15 ml. The rotor can be loaded with a combination of 15 ml Falcons
®
and 15 ml round
bottom centrifuge tubes. The maximum capacity is then 20 x 15 ml Falcons
®
and
10 x 15 ml round bottom centrifuge tubes
.
