<p>A centrifugation assembly and a method for rapid separation of phases of a liquid, for example for blood phase separation, which comprises a rotor (10) with holding means (12) pivotable with respect to the rotor about a pivoting axis and containing a tube (16) with a blood example (18). The assembly comprises a means for rotating the rotor about the rotor axis and a displacing means (24) to displace the common center of gravity of the holding means with the sample with respect to the pivoting axis. A stopping means (22) is provided to retain the degree of inclination of the holding means during the first phase of separation. After completing the first phase of separation, the holding means takes a horizontal position to enable alignment of centrifugal force with the walls of the tube. The centrifugation assembly may have a removing means (172) for removing the caps (168) from the tubes (16) residing within the holder (102).</p> |
