Eppendorf has introduced the high-capacity fixed-angle Rotor FA-6×250 for up to 6 x
250 mL bottles. The Rotor FA-6×250 extends the application range of the large
benchtop Centrifuges 5910 R and 5920 R, which encompasses harvesting of
bacteria, algae and yeast, as well as mammalian cells, in vessels up to 250 mL. An
additional area of application now includes plasmid DNA extractions and lysate
clearance following cell lysis.

A broad selection of 12 different adapters minimizes the need for cumbersome rotor
exchanges during the workflow; numerous vessel types of various volumes can now
be accommodated by simply switching adapters. This simplifies handling and saves
time.

The Eppendorf Centrifuges 5910 R and 5920 R also offer a large variety of rotors,
thus serving countless applications in vessels ranging from 0.5 mL to 1,000 mL in
volume. In the past, the use of 250 mL flat bottom bottles had been limited to swing-
bucket rotors with a maximum speed just over 5,000 x g. The new fixed-angle rotor
FA-6×250 now delivers a speed of up to 15,054 x g, effectively extending the range
of application of the large Eppendorf benchtop centrifuges.
