Abstract
An automatic centrifuge, especially useful with the Censlide.TM. containers, enables automatic operation in the centrifuging of samples. The centrifugal speed is ramped up to a first speed for about 45 seconds, the first speed maintained for about 15 seconds, the speed is then ramped down to a second speed during a 15 second time interval, and the second speed maintained while the samples are flicked a predetermined number of times. The centrifugal speed is then ramped down to zero. The automatic operation, and flicking enables the samples to be examined in their containers as soon as the automated cycle, requiring a time period of from one and one half minutes to about two minutes, is ended.
