Abstract
A centrifuge rotor () includes a closure () between a lower part () of the centrifuge rotor () and a cover (). The centrifuge rotor has been improved such that proper single-handed operation is made possible. In particular, the closure () can be closed and detached again using just one hand. The cover () includes a circular cut-out () for fastening the centrifuge rotor () in a centrifuge. The cover () is attached to the lower part () by levers having a concave shaping (). The cover () and the levers cooperate to provide a visual indication whether the cover is properly closed.
