The Sigma 2-7 Cyto is a compact, high-precision laboratory benchtop centrifuge that combines the robust design of the Sigma 2-7 with advanced cytocentrifugation capabilities. Engineered for gentle yet effective sample processing, it accommodates closed cytology rotors for up to twelve RESOPSIN or Shandon™ clips, ensuring superior safety and sample integrity. The rotor can be loaded and unloaded under a safety cabinet to minimize contamination risks during all centrifugation phases. Supporting both cytocentrifugation and cell harvesting using a 4 x 100 ml swing-out rotor in the same unit, the Sigma 2-7 Cyto maximizes bench space efficiency. With a maximum speed of 2,000 rpm and gentle acceleration/deceleration profiles, it delivers controlled performance for fragile samples. This model includes rotor no. 11261, 12 clips no. 13261, 50 single-use funnels no. 15260, and 50 coated slides no. 15261, making it a complete, ready-to-use cytology solution.
