Description
Introducing the 24 branch microhematocrit centrifuge model MC24
24 branch microhematocrit centrifuge, model MC24, made in Iran, from the laboratory centrifuge category, with engine speed up to 12000 rpm and full digital, is used to separate blood hematocrit. For this reason, it is an essential tool in medical laboratories.
What is a microhematocrit centrifuge?
Microhematocrit centrifuge is a specialized laboratory device in medical diagnosis laboratories that is used to measure blood hematocrit. Hematocrit refers to the volume ratio of red blood cells in the total blood volume. This device separates red blood cells from other blood components by spinning the blood samples at a very high speed.
Microhematocrit centrifuges are used to determine the volume fraction of red blood cells and to separate microvolumes of blood and solutions, which provide hematocrit (HCT) values for testing in biochemistry, immunology, genetics, blood separation, and for clinical trials.
The working principle of the microhematocrit centrifuge is the same as other centrifuges. By rotating the material at a certain speed, different parts of the blood and hematocrit are separated from the blood plasma. You should also pay attention to the number of revolutions of the engine and the radius of the device.

Application cases
The microhematocrit centrifuge has various applications in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Among these applications, we can mention accurate measurement of blood hematocrit, diagnosis of diseases such as anemia (with a decrease in hematocrit) and polycythemia (with an increase in hematocrit). Also, this device plays an important role in monitoring the process of treating blood diseases and evaluating the patient’s response to treatment. By regularly measuring hematocrit, doctors can more accurately follow the course of the disease and make more appropriate treatment decisions.
Centrifuge maintenance
- Clean your centrifuge daily.
- A plastic scrub brush should be used to avoid damaging the coatings.
- After the cleaning job is done, you should use centrifugal lubricant to lubricate the bucket grooves and rubber seals.
- Check the rotors for residue and corrosion weekly or monthly.
