Overview

Benchmark’s PlateFuge™ is the first “mini” sized centrifuge with a swing out rotor for microplates. Centrifuging plates before PCR ensures all reactants are in the bottom of the wells for proper concentrations and improved yields.

In spite of its remarkably small footprint (9×10 in.), the PlateFuge™ includes a uniquely designed, swing out rotor (patent pending) capable of securing 2 microplates. The easily accessible rotor chamber includes two plate carriers that rest at a 75° angle. This allows plates to be inserted confidently without sealing tapes or caps. Upon closing the lid of the centrifuge, the rotor accelerates and the centrifugal force “swings” the plates into a horizontal position. Any droplets on the walls of the plate quickly concentrate into the well bottoms.

With a g-force of 600 xg, most samples can be spun down in less than 20 seconds.

To end a run, simply open the lid and the automatic, electric brake brings the rotor to a quick, smooth stop in just 4 seconds. Plates can then be easily removed from the rotor.

Features:

  • Quickly spins down droplets in PCR plates
  • Unique swing-out rotor design prevents spillage 
  • (patented)
  • Half the size of traditional centrifuges
  • Accepts all popular types of PCR plates 
  • (skirted, semi, and non) and most microtiter plates

FAQ

I see that the plates are entered into the PlateFuge at an angle. Will this cause spillage if the wells are relatively full?

Yes, if the wells of the microplate are relatively full, there is the risk of spillage. The PlateFuge is ideally suited for situations where either the microplates are sealed or the wells of the plate are no more than half full.

Buy it!

They love it! Very durable and a great squeaker that is seemingly indestructible! Definitely getting it in other colors, and impressed at the quality for the price. Don’t hesitate on this one- corgi and dachshund approved!

Perfect for young pups who get bored easily!
Color: Bacon, Color: Bacon
Our pup recently turned 1 and gets bored very easily, so she’s always looking for something new to chew or play with. We got her this little alligator toy and she is OBSESSED with it! She carries it everywhere and plays with it constantly. I’m honestly surprised by how durable it’s been considering how much use it gets. If you want to help save your furniture and household items from becoming chew toys, do yourself a favor and grab this for your pup!

Extremely durable but too large for our Aussie
Color: Bacon -Blue
This toy is very solid and seems like it would hold up well for aggressive chewers, but it ended up being too large and heavy for our Australian Shepherd. He had trouble comfortably holding it in his mouth and wasn’t very interested in chewing on it because of the size and weight. The quality itself seems good, but I would recommend it more for larger dogs with bigger jaws that enjoy heavier chew toys.

Indestructible toy
Color: Bacon
This is a great toy. I have a husky pit bull mix puppy that can chew anything. I swear that dog can chew the varnish off a furniture. He cannot chew this up.I highly recommend
