Centrifugation with different tube sizes:
Working with different tube sizes is possible. In this case, however, it
is very important that opposite inserts are identical (see Fig. 6.2).
Centrifugation with low capacity: The tubes must be installed
symmetrically so that the buckets and their inserts are loaded evenly
(see Fig. 6.3).
