Centrifuge
BRIEF HISTORY In 1864 , Antonin Prandti discovered the first centrifuge-type machine, which was used in the dairy industry to separate milk and cream. The next evolution in centrifuge was Ultra-Centrifuge, discovered in 1920s by Swedish chemist Theodor Svedberg. This ultracentrifuge used for highly complex protein and viruses and determining of molecular weights of substances. In U.S, 1954 brought widely improvements to commercial centrifuge with new high speed motors and better rotors. In 1962 the German company Netheler & Hinz (now known as Eppendorf) created the first microcentrifuge for lab use. Eppendorf discovered personal centrifuges in 2000 and centrifuge technology has continued to improve commercially ever since, now used for density separation (Cash, 2017). GENERA...
