Centrifuge Tubes

Features

• Gamma radiation sterilized and non-sterilized available
• Non-pyrogenic
• 15ml and 50ml conical tubes available
• Working temperature: stable from -20°C to 121°C
• Withstand centrifugation of 8,400 RCF for 15ml and 9,400 RCF for 50ml in a fully supported rotor

Packaging

• Foam racked packages offer the convenience of oriented product presentation
• Samples can be viewed without removing tubes from rack
• Bulk packaging contains transparent polyethylene bags are durable and protect the tubes well
• All sterile tubes are packaged with caps attached while non-sterile tubes are packaged with caps separately

Cap Design

• Flat-top caps:
  • Biologically inert, high density polyethylene provides a chemically resistant surface
  • Double threaded design to reduce cross-threading, easily opened and closed
  • Flatness facilitates top writing areas for sample identification
• Plug-seal screw caps:
  • Biologically inert, high density polypropylene provides a chemically resistant surface
  • Double threaded design to reduce cross-threading, easily opened and closed
  • Autoclavable

Tube Design

• Tubes are made of strong, medical-grade polypropylene
• Transparent wall permits easy viewing of tube contents
• Conical bottom design fits most standard floor model and table-top centrifuges
• Graduations with white ink in 1ml (for 15ml tubes) or 5ml (for 50ml tubes) increments
• White writing area facilitates sample identification
• Solvent-resistant printing will not rub off during routine laboratory procedures
• Tubes are covered with leak-proof caps that comply with IATA Safety Standards
