Description
The Elutra system passes fluid through the cell layer established within a centrifugal field inside the separation chamber. By varying the flow of fluid in the opposite direction to the centrifugal force, the system aligns and collects particles according to size (smallest to largest) and density (lower to higher). Using both size and density as separation factors increases the resolution of cell separation compared to what is achieved with traditional centrifugation.
