  2. Caesium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesium_chloride

    The caesium chloride structure adopts a primitive cubic lattice with a two-atom basis, where both atoms have eightfold coordination. The chloride atoms lie upon the lattice points at the corners of the cube, while the caesium atoms lie in the holes in the center of the cubes; an alternative and exactly equivalent 'setting' has the caesium ions at the corners and the chloride ion in the center.

  3. Buoyant density centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyant_density_centrifugation

    Historically a cesium chloride (CsCl) solution was often used, but more commonly used density gradients are sucrose or Percoll.This application requires a solution with high density and yet relatively low viscosity, and CsCl suits it because of its high solubility in water, high density owing to the large mass of Cs, as well as low viscosity and high stability of CsCl solutions.

  4. Differential centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_centrifugation

    After each centrifugation, the supernatant (non-pelleted solution) is removed from the tube and re-centrifuged at an increased centrifugal force and/or time. Differential centrifugation is suitable for crude separations on the basis of sedimentation rate, but more fine grained purifications may be done on the basis of density through ...

  5. Centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugation

    The centrifugation method has a wide variety of industrial and laboratorial applications; not only is this process used to separate two miscible substances, but also to analyze the hydrodynamic properties of macromolecules. [4] It is one of the most important and commonly used research methods in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology.

  6. Decanter centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decanter_Centrifuge

    A decanter centrifuge applies a force equivalent to several thousand G's, which reduces the settling time of the particles. It is also favoured to maintain a large G-force, which will result in an improved separation. [8] The rate at which sedimentation occurs is an important characteristic of the decanter centrifuge separation process.

  7. Laboratory centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_centrifuge

    Isopycnic centrifugation, often used to isolate nucleic acids such as DNA; Sucrose gradient centrifugation, often used to purify enveloped viruses and ribosomes, and also to separate cell organelles from crude cellular extracts; There are different types of laboratory centrifuges: Microcentrifuges

  8. Desalting and buffer exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalting_and_buffer_exchange

    To eliminate sample dilution and the collecting and monitoring of fractions, centrifuge column or plate -based gel filtration, also referred to as spin desalting, methods are commonly used. Spin desalting is unique in that a centrifuge is used to first clear the void volume of liquid in the resin, followed by sample addition and centrifugation.

  9. Bisbenzimide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisbenzimide

    Bisbenzimide tends to bind to adenine–thymine-rich regions of DNA and can decrease its density.Bisbenzimide mixed with DNA samples can then be used to separate DNA according to their AT percentage using a cesium chloride (CsCl) gradient centrifugation.
