Extract

The use of an electrically driven Sharples super-centrifuge for isolating viruses is described. The theory of sedimentation in such centrifuges is discussed and curves of the theoretical minimum sedimentation rates are given. The probability that convectionless sedimentation cannot take place in high-speed preparative centrifuges is discussed in relation to the theory of ‘differential centrifugation’.
