Why is Centrifugation Important in Disease Outbreaks?
During disease outbreaks, rapid and accurate identification of pathogens is crucial. Centrifugation helps in: - Quick Sample Preparation: Enabling efficient extraction of DNA, RNA, or proteins from samples, which is essential for molecular diagnostics. - High Throughput: Allowing simultaneous processing of multiple samples, which is vital during large-scale epidemics. - Enhanced Sensitivity: Improving the detection limits of diagnostic tests by concentrating pathogens or biomarkers.
