Only Sharples i've had experience with was an old steam-driven model- I wouldn't recommend that. Actually it looked a lot like the T1 at http://boto.ocean.washington.edu/file/show/2340 except for the motor. An alternative you should consider is the sorval thermos (fisher?) Heraeus Stratos Continuous Flow Centrifuge. I haven't used that either, and would be interested to know how others like it. http://www.thermo.com/com/cda/product/detail/1,,10124130,00.html

Dear All, Sorry for the not strictly crystallography-related question. We are currently setting up a fermentation core and are considering purchasing a T1 Sharples continuous flow centrifuge. It is a mid-range capacity instrument. We will be processing bacteria and yeast. I was wondering if anyone had experience with this type of instrument and would be willing to share his/her thoughts about it. Thank you very much in advance. -- Pascal F.
