answered-by-expert Expert Answer

Centrifugation is used for separating components of a mixture in which the solid particles in a liquid are so small that cannot be separated by filtration process.

Principle : Denser particles are forced to the bottom and the lighter particles stay at the top when spun rapidly.

Applications:

1. Used in diagnostic laboratories for blood and urine tests.

2. Used in dairies and home to separate the butter from the cream.
