Abstract
A device for centrifuging liquid, inter alia for collecting particles or cells in suspension in the liquid. It comprises a vessel for the liquid to be centrifuged made of a material, for example PVC, such that the liquid sample is held inside it by electrostatic forces of attraction and/or by surface tension forces, even when the vessel is not rotating and its orifice is facing downwards.
