Centrifuge Tubes
Glass and plastic tubes designed for use in centrifuges; available in a variety of volume capacities, materials, configurations, RCF ratings, and closure types; may be sterile or non-sterile; may have graduations indicating volume on the tube.
Centrifuge tubes are used to contain liquids during centrifugation, which separates the sample into its components by rapidly rotating it around a fixed axis.
Most centrifuge tubes have conical bottoms, which help collect any solid or heavier parts of the sample being centrifuged. Centrifuge tubes must also be able to withstand the centrifugal pressure created during their use, and their specifications may indicate the maximum speed at which they can be safely used.
Centrifuge tubes are available in various styles, sizes, and materials
- Capacities: Range from 0.1mL to more than 100mL; the most common sizes are 15mL and 50mL (centrifuge) and 1mL and 2mL (microcentrifuge)
- Closures: Screw-on plugged or flat caps; may be attached or separate
- Markings: May have writing areas, graduations, or other markings
- Shape: Conical- or round-bottomed; if conical, choose skirted free-standing versions
- Material: Glass or plastic resin; the latter include polypropylene, polystyrene, PET, and PPCO
- Sterility: Sterile or nonsterile; may be heat- or gas-sterilized
- Packaging: Bulk or racked tubes
- Color: Choose amber or black plastics for light-sensitive samples

Electron Microscopy Sciences CULTRE TBE PS 5MM STRL 25 SEAL
Disposable sterile tubes with caps made of polyethylene (PE) and have the popular two position design (up/loose for aerobic work and down/sealed for anaerobic cultures). Polystyrene tubes may be centrifuged at up to 2000xg. Polypropylene tubes are able to withstand higher centrifugal forces, up to 4000xg.
Electron Microscopy Sciences CONICALCNTRFGE TBE 15ML
EzFlip Conical Centrifuge tubes offers a safer alternative to screw cap tubes. A patented closure system improves ergonomics and versatility. An improved tube and cap design increases mechanical strength to withstand aggressive centrifugal forces. The 15 ml tube's maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) is 8,500 x g, and the 50 ml tube's maximum RCF is 9,500 x g. Tubes are graduated and feature a writing area.
Bellco Glass, Inc. 50mL Centrifuge Tube
Graduations are printed in bold easytoread black ink and are accurate to plus/2. Large white marking area provides excellent contrast for identification. Easy to write on flat surface polyethylene HDPE caps feature integrated leakproof seal. Tubes include graduations molded into the conical bottom ideal for pellet viewing and small volume quantification. Convenient zipclosure bag is a practical alternative to folding and taping opened bags. Assorted color cap tubes allow easily color coding of samples for quick identification customization and increased productivity. Users report coding each color to a day of the week a member of the lab or a specific procedure. Each case of assorted color tubes 230411A and 230421A comes with a free plastic rack and 4 bags of each individual color red yellow green blue purple Specifications Plastic rack is manufactured from polypropylene and is autoclavable reusable and recyclable <
