There are two main categories of centrifuges: those based on speed (low speed up to 6,000 rpm, high speed 20,000-30,000 rpm, and ultra speed up to 80,000 rpm) and those based on rotor angle (fixed angle, vertical, and swing bucket). Centrifuges are used to separate particles and molecules based on density and size through differential centrifugal force. They vary in size from small benchtop models to analytical ultracentrifuges that can spin at 500,000g and monitor samples in real time.
A centrifuge is a device used to separate components of a mixture on the basis of their size, density, the viscosity of the medium, and the rotor speed.
The centrifuge is commonly used in laboratories for the separation of biological molecules from a crude extract.
In a centrifuge, the sample is kept in a rotor that is rotated about a fixed point (axis), resulting in strong force perpendicular to the axis.
There are different types of centrifuge used for the separation of different molecules, but they all work on the principle of sedimentation.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

2. Introduction
• There are different types of centrifuge in
which there are two main categories that are:
1. Based on speed
a. Low speed
b. High speed
c. Ultra speed
2. Based on angle
a. Fixed angle
b. Vertical
c. Swing bucket
3. Based on rotors' speed
1. Low speed
centrifuge
Its speed is about
6000 rpm.
It can be operated at
room temperature.
4. 2. High speed centrifuge
It has speed up to 20k
to 30k
While operating the
centrifuge we can
control the temperature
as per our need.
6. Based on Rotors' angle
1. Fixed angle rotors
In fixed-angle rotor, the sample tubes are held fixed at the angle of the rotor cavity.
When the rotor begins to rotate, the solution in the tubes reorients to affect the separation.
This rotor is most used for pelleting by differential separation of biological particles.
It is also useful for isopycnic separations of macromolecules such as nucleic acids.
7. 2. Vertical rotors
In vertical rotor, sealed tubes are held parallel to the axis of rotation.
Samples are not separated down the length of the centrifuge tube, but across the diameter
of the tube.
The isopycnic separation time is shorter in this rotor as compared to swinging bucket
rotor.
This rotor is not suitable for pelleting applications but is most efficient for isopycnic
separations due to the short pathlength.
Most common applications are isolation of plasmid DNA, RNA, and lipoproteins.
8. 3. Swing bucket rotors
In swinging bucket rotor, the sample tubes are loaded into individual buckets that hang
vertically while the rotor is at rest.
When the rotor begins to rotate, the buckets swing out to a horizontal position. This rotor is
useful when samples are to be separated based on density gradients.
This rotor is inefficient for pelleting.
10. The different types of centrifuges are as follows:
1. Small benchtop centrifuges have a maximum rate of 3000 g–7000 g. They are used to precipitate
coarse granules, yeast cells, and so on.
2. Large-capacity refrigerated centrifuges have a maximum rate of 6500 g with a capacity of 100 cc. They
are refrigerated to control the temperature.
3. High-speed refrigerated centrifuges have a maximum rate of 60,000 g; are refrigerated; and are used to
sediment small microorganisms, cellular debris, and large cellular organelles.
4. Continuous-flow centrifuges are unlike other centrifuges where tubes are attached to the rotor; in
continuous-flow centrifuges, the rotor itself is tubular. Particles are sedimented against the wall of the
centrifuge and supernatant continuously flows out; they are used in the large-scale harvesting of bacteria.
5. A preparative ultracentrifuge has a maximum rate of 600,000 g. The rotor chamber is refrigerated,
sealed, and evacuated to minimize heat production due to friction between air and the spinning rotor.
11. 6. In an analytical ultracentrifuge, a sample being spun can be monitored in real time
through an optical detection system, using ultraviolet light absorption and/or interference
optical refractive index sensitive system known as the Schlieren optical system or the
Rayleigh interferometric system. This allows the operator to observe the evolution of the
sample concentration versus the axis of rotation profile as a result of the applied
centrifugal field. With modern instrumentation, these observations are electronically
digitized and stored for further mathematical analysis. Two kinds of experiments are
commonly performed on these instruments: (1) sedimentation velocity experiments and
(2) sedimentation equilibrium experiments. An analytical ultracentrifuge has a maximum
rate of 500,000 g.
