Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell separator technology, specifically a high-efficiency cell separator. Background Technology

[0002] A centrifuge is a machine that uses centrifugal force to separate the components of a mixture of liquids and solid particles or liquids. Centrifuges are mainly used to separate solid particles from liquids in suspensions, or to separate two immiscible liquids of different densities in emulsions. Specialized high-speed tubular centrifuges can also separate gas mixtures of different densities. Taking advantage of the different settling velocities of solid particles of different densities or sizes in liquids, some sedimentation centrifuges can also classify solid particles according to density or size. Therefore, cells can be separated from nutrient solutions by centrifugal force for separate extraction.

[0003] However, most devices cannot change the rotation angle of the centrifuge tube during the separation process. When cell fluids of different densities and masses are separated from nutrient solutions, different angles will lead to different cell separation effects and times.
