Patent ID: 7837609

Claim:
A centrifuge apparatus comprising: a tank assembly; a first continuous-flow rotor assembly that comprises a first core having a first core length (L 1 ) that describes a first centrifugation volume and a first sedimentation path, said first continuous-flow rotor assembly being positionable within said tank assembly; and a second continuous-flow rotor assembly that comprises a second core having a second core length (L 2 ) that describes a second centrifugation volume and a second sedimentation path, said second continuous-flow rotor assembly being positionable within said tank assembly, said first centrifugation volume being different than said second centrifugation volume, said first sedimentation path being the same as said second sedimentation path, and said first core length (L 1 ) being the same as said second core length (L 2 ).
