Abstract
Due to a lack of coherent analysis, many common practices of humankind preserve low-efficient procedures. Balancing tubes during centrifugation exemplifies such a problem in laboratory practice. Using combination of symmetry group theory and genetic algorithm methodology we demonstrate that there is an array of surprisingly non-trivial algorithms for going about this procedure.
