Abstract
The present invention relates to a centrifuge insert for sample holders and to a carrier for a centrifuge insert for sample holders. The centrifuge insert according to the invention has substantial advantages over known centrifuge inserts. These advantages are not limited to the fact that the carrier is attachable and detachable in a particularly easy and comfortable manner. It is also feasible to use different carriers for different sample holders. Furthermore, the centrifuge insert according to the invention is configured particularly light and compact so that the loading of the rotor is significantly lower for identical centrifugation powers or so that significantly higher RCA values can be used.
