The Thermo Scientific™ Heraeus™ Pico™ and Fresco™ 17 microcentrifuges are excellent for routine
laboratory work, while the Heraeus Pico and Fresco 21 microcentrifuges are ideal for high-end
research applications, reducing spin times by up to 20%.
Perform both complex and simple protocols:
} The standard rotor runs 24 tubes in a single row with
equalized g-forces for reproducibility, from 1.5 to 2.0 mL
tubes to mini-preps and spin columns
} Eliminate the need for adapters with the unique dual row
rotor, which holds 18 tubes of both 1.5/2.0 mL and 0.5 mL
in the same run
} Maximize your micro-volume capacity with the new
10 x 5 mL rotor with ClickSeal biocontainment lid,
separating samples at g-force up to 20,326 x g
} Wide variety of rotors support 0.5 mL microtubes,
0.2 mL PCR tubes and hematocrit capillary tubes
Save time with fast sample processing

Ideal for everyday laboratory use:
} High performance engineered polymer rotors are designed for
outstanding chemical resistance to minimize corrosion
from aggressive reagents
} ClickSeal biocontainment lids shorten retrieval time with one-
click opening, compared to screw-on lids
} Transparent PPSU rotor lids enable viewing for added
safety and convenience
} Quiet performance (<56 dBA ventilated and <50 dBA
refrigerated) promotes a safe and reduced stress environment
} Conforms to the latest clinical and safety standards, including
98/79/EC In Vitro Diagnostic Directive
} Lightweight rotors are designed to provide acceleration
up to 21,100 xg in 12 seconds
} Refrigerated versions offer cooling from room temperature
to set temperature in just 9 minutes
} Fast one-click centrifuge lid closure
