Ultracentrifuge

A high speed centrifuge used to determine the relative molecular masses of large molecules in high polymers and proteins.Subject to the action of an ultracentrigue.A type of centrifuge capable of spinning at 500 000 rpm, that is half a million revolutions per minute, which is used to separate tiny particles from one another due to the force involved.

Fractination of SA into Cytosol., Cell Wall, Cytoplasmic

... correctly, but it sounds tricky to me. I can't see how you're going to do this without any centrifuge, but perhaps you don't need a full-blown ultracentrifuge. If you have access to either a benchtop Eppendorf centrifuge, which can spin a 1.5 ml tube up to 17,000xg, or an RC-5Plus or equivalent ...
