3.1 Maximum values for centrifuging
Centrifugation at 4 °C – 40 °C possible
The plates can be centrifuged with the maximum g-forces (rcf) listed in the table below
under the following conditions:
• in a 45° fixed-angle rotor
• sample temperature of 40°C with aqueous saline solution (1.0 g/mL density)
• for 90 min
The mechanical strength of the plates is reduced by the use of organic solvents. If in
doubt, please contact the Eppendorf Application Support
The centrifugation stability of any plate type is generally dependent on the plate itself,
centrifuge, rotor, rotor bucket, adapter, maximum rotation/maximum gravitation field,
Material Polypropylene, colored and colorless
Chemical resistance The plates, including border, show a high resistance to UV
light and chemicals. Compare Application Note 56: The best
material for original Eppendorf Tubes® and Plates on
www.eppendorf.com. In case of doubt, contact Eppendorf
Application Support.
Dimensions In accordance with Microplate Standards ANSI/SLAS 1-2004
through ANSI/SLAS 4-2004
1 .
Autoclaving Autoclavable (121 °C, 20 min.). The dimensional stability of
the single-use items can be affected.
Operational temperature -86 °C to +100 °C
Storage before use Store dry at room temperature. Protect from direct sunlight
and UV light.
NOTICE! Consumables will get hot.
In non-refrigerated centrifuges, the temperature in the rotor chamber, rotor and
sample can increase to above 40 °C, based on the run time, g-force (rcf)/speed
and ambient temperature.
