The centrifuge separates the <strong>cell</strong>'s parts<br />

into pellet and supernatant. The pellet are the<br />

large <strong>cell</strong> structures that are settled at the test<br />

tube's bottom. The supernatant are smaller<br />

parts of the <strong>cell</strong> suspending in liquid, the<br />

supernatant <strong>is</strong> decanted and undergoes<br />

another centrifugation. The process <strong>is</strong><br />

repeated and increases speed with each trial<br />

to collect successively smaller parts of a <strong>cell</strong> in<br />

pellets.
