    A centrifuge separates a heterogeneous mixture of solid and liquid by spinning it. After a successful centrifugation, the solid precipitate settles to the bottom of the test tube and the solution, called the cetrifugate, is clear. You must turn off the centrifuge with the switch and wait for it to stop spinning, to effectively separate the precipitate and the solution.

    Centrifugation

    A centrifuge separates a heterogeneous mixture of solid


    and liquid by spinning it. After a successful
    centrifugation, the solid precipitate settles to the bottom
    of the test tube and the solution, called the cetrifugate,
    is clear.

    Using a Centrifuge
    Place test tube in centrifuge holder.

    Balance with another test tube filled to the same level in


    the opposite holder.

    Close cover and turn knob. Centrifugation takes a minute


    or more. Note that you must turn off the centrifuge with
    the switch and wait for it to stop spinning, to effectively
    separate the precipitate and solution.
