Abstract
An adapter for a swinging bucket centrifuge rotor includes a slide plate having a retaining lip and a cam surface thereon. Movement of the plate in one direction to a holding position disposes the lip to hold above the rim of a microtube to hold the same in place. Movement in an opposite direction introduces a cam surface between the rim of the tube and a flange on a closure to thereby uncap the same.
