Dr. Griffith began his career in 1962 as the Principal Applications Scientist at Beckman Instruments, Spinco Division (Palo Alto, CA) where he developed new methods for their existing centrifuges.  After retiring from Beckman Instruments he consulted with FIBERLite Centrifuge, Piramoon Technologies (Santa Clara, CA) where he continued expanding research methods for using lightweight carbon fiber rotors to replace metallic rotors which were used in all existing centrifuges at the time.  These carbon fiber rotors enabled researchers to reduce run times for the preparation and purification of large and small volumes of proteins, antibodies, subcellular organelles and nucleic acids (DNA & RNA).  The rotors were also used for harvesting large volumes of virus from cultures for vaccine preparation and mammalian cells or bacteria grown in culture for biotechnology studies.  Advanced techniques were used in the rotors for analytical ultracentrifuges, preparative and tabletop centrifuges.  In addition, Dr. Griffith presented seminars worldwide on his peer-reviewed research studies accomplished in the laboratory.  This book embodies a compilation of some of the most recent research projects he developed.
