The Svedberg (symbol: S) is a unit of time used in the field of biochemistry and molecular biology to measure the sedimentation rate of particles in a centrifuge. It is named after the Swedish chemist Theodor Svedberg, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1926 for his work on the ultracentrifuge and the behavior of colloids. One Svedberg unit is defined as \(10^{-13}\) seconds.
