Place the MyFuge™ Mini Centrifuge on a flat and level surface nearby an electrical outlet. It should not be near a heat source or in direct sunlight.
The MyFuge™ Mini Centrifuge includes a second rotor that is designed for holding PCR tubes and PCR strips. The rotor is conveniently stored in a bottom compartment on the bottom of the centrifuge. To access this rotor, turn the machine upside down and remove it from the compartment.
To ensure safe operation and long life of the instrument, samples must always be loaded into the rotor in a balanced fashion. Tubes and strips must always be loaded symmetrically across from one another and contain the same volume of liquid. See diagram at right.
The centrifuge rotors can be removed for cleaning. Once removed, the rotors can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol or can be sterilized in an autoclave at 121°C for 20 minutes.
