Hematocrit Determination with Microhematocrit Centrifuges
Microhematocrit centrifuges are used for the determination of volume fractions of erythrocytes (red blood cells) in blood and for the separation of micro volumes of blood and solutions.
It provides hematocrit values (HCT) for testing in biochemistry, immunity, genetics, blood separation, and general clinical tests.
Micro-hematocrit centrifuges are very common when it comes to diagnose blood loss, polycythemia (an elevation of the erythrocyte count to above-normal levels), anemia, bone marrow failure, leukemia, and multiple myeloma.
Because micro haematocrit centrifuges use micro capillary tubes to hold samples, very small samples of blood are required for testing.

Small but powerful
Compact and powerful - those are the characteristics of the Sigma 1-14 in a nutshell. The technical features include a maximum speed of 14,800 rpm and a maximum RCF of 16,163 x g with a capacity of 24 x 1.5–2 ml.
Large buttons and a large, highly legible display make the Sigma 1-14 extremely easy to operate.
Only Sigma is original
Sigma centrifuges are known for their performance and reliability as well as a high standard of safety. We have been working on this quality principle for 40 years. Because of this we want to warn our customers of product copies.
The most compact centrifuge in its class
Powerful, compact and versatile
Like its partner Sigma 1-14, the refrigerated version is compact and has impressive performance figures. The Sigma 1-14K refrigerated centrifuge is the most compact refrigerated centrifuge commercially available and has a maximum capacity of 24 x 1.5–2 ml. Large buttons and a large, highly legible display make the Sigma 1-14K extremely easy to operate. It easily achieves +4°C at maximum speed.
