The Model 853VES has become a reliable part of many routine laboratory workflows, but with the model now discontinued, it might be time to consider a replacement. Drucker Diagnostics’ DASH 12 STAT centrifuge provides a familiar starting point, with added speed and RCF capabilities. For 853VES units equipped with either 12-place horizontal rotor, the DASH […]

When a laboratory’s 853VES reaches the end of its service life, replacing it is an opportunity to look at which parts of the existing workflow need to stay the same and which can change. For labs using the 20-place fixed-angle rotor, the right replacement depends on factors such as tube size, capacity, required RCF, and […]

The Model 853VES has been a familiar part of many laboratory workflows, but with the model now discontinued, laboratories using the 6-place 50 mL fixed-angle rotor may be considering what to use next. The HORIZON 24 provides a current option for this setup, maintaining the 6 × 50 mL capacity and 2,000 xg maximum RCF […]

StatSpin products are no longer available for purchase, and manufacturer support is being phased out. Practices still relying on the now-discontinued StatSpin® VT will need to find a replacement before their current unit reaches end of service. Continuing to run unsupported equipment increases the risk of unavailable parts and repair delays that can affect sample […]

StatSpin products are no longer available for purchase, and manufacturer support for them is being phased out. Clinical labs still operating a StatSpin® Express 4 will need to find a replacement before their current unit reaches end of service. Continuing to run unsupported equipment increases the risk of unavailable parts and repair delays that can […]

Labs that rely on a StatSpin Express 3 for coagulation testing are using a centrifuge that can no longer be purchased or supported. As parts become more difficult to source and manufacturer support is phased out, the chance of extended downtime increases, along with the delays that follow when a STAT unit is out of […]

StatSpin products are no longer available for purchase, which means clinical labs still operating a StatSpin® Express 2 will need to find a replacement before their current unit reaches end of service. Continuing to operate an unsupported centrifuge increases the risk of unexpected repairs, unavailable parts, or workflow disruptions that can affect sample processing and […]

In-house veterinary diagnostics are getting faster. A new generation of AI-driven hematology analyzers can now result a complete blood count in minutes, and that speed is changing expectations for the whole lab. While those analyzers run on whole blood and do not require a spun sample, chemistry, immunoassay, urine, and fecal testing all rely on a veterinary centrifuge. When the […]

When comparing laboratory centrifuges, it’s natural to focus on features like capacity, speed, tube compatibility, and cycle times. Those specifications help determine whether a centrifuge can support your workflow, but they’re only part of the picture. A warranty is worth evaluating just as carefully. It provides peace of mind if something goes wrong and offers […]
