title: Centrifuges and rotors.
abstract: This appendix provides r(max) values (the maximum value of the rotating radius between the particle being centrifuged and the axis of rotation) for commonly used rotors manufactured by Du Pont (Sorvall), Beckman, Fisher, and IEC. Additionally, nomograms are provided for determining the relative centrifugal force (RCF) where speed and r(max) are known, or the speed where RCF and r(max) are known.
