Registersample centrifugation [Study Performance]
Hi ssk!
g: approximately 9.81 m/s².
It's good practice to state something like '1500 × g' (1500times acceleration due to earth's gravity) in order to be able to compare different centrifuges.
Stating rpm alone means nothing (since the diameter of the rotor is not given).
For a conversion have a look at this document or this nomogram.
Cooled
Actually you don't know the temperature of the sample, but it's quite common to set the temperature of the centrifuge to +4 °C.
As already stated it should allow for easy separation of plasma.
I don't believe that sponsors do calculate anything - mainly they are skillful in 'copy-and-paste'...
