Understanding the Centrifuge: Definition, Operation, and Medical Applications, Assignments of Electrical and Electronics Engineering

A centrifuge is a laboratory instrument that uses high-speed rotation to separate particles from liquids based on their densities. The centrifugation process applies centrifugal force, which is the force that pushes particles towards the outer edge of the rotating container. This force enables the separation of mixtures, making centrifuges essential tools in various fields, including medical research and diagnostics. In this summary, we will discuss the definition, operation, and main uses of centrifuges, with a focus on their applications in medical research.
