Removal and Sample Recovery

CAUTION
If disassembly reveals evidence of leakage, you should assume that some fluid
escaped the rotor. Apply appropriate decontamination procedures to the
centrifuge and accessories.
1
Remove the buckets from the centrifuge.
2
Remove covers (if used) from buckets, and remove the tubes from the buckets.
NOTE
If glass tubes break, remove the glass very carefully from the adapter and bucket. If all the glass
particles are not contained in the bucket or adapter, be careful when examining or cleaning the
centrifuge gasket and chamber as glass particles may be embedded in their surfaces.
