Microtubes
Single-use containers designed to hold microliter to milliliter quantities of liquid. Products may be sterile/non-sterile, come with or without a variety of caps (screw, tether, snap), and may be suitable for use in microcentrifuges.
High quality standard snap cap microtubes, or microcentrifuge tubes, are essential for the safe processing of low to medium sized sample volume applications in clinical chemistry, biochemistry and molecular biology. Ideal for protein research, mass spectrometry, protein array, sample preparation, microcentrifugation and sample storage, they are available in a variety of colours, including amber and black for light sensitive samples.
The snap cap provides a safe, liquid-tight seal and some flat top caps include a needle insertion spot. Some microtubes are also available with additional safety lock snap caps to minimise sample loss during the centrifugation process and to provide added security when working with samples that are radioactive or which pose a biohazard.
Snap Cap Microtube properties
Available as sterile or non-sterile, polypropylene microtubes can also feature low binding properties to reduce protein and nucleic acid loss and hence better sample recovery.
- Can withstand forces up to max. RCF 30,000xg
- Are available sterile or non-sterile
- Are available with low binding properties, reducing protein and nucleic acid losses during centrifugations
- Available RNase/DNase, DNA-free and non-pyrogenic
- Typically made from durable autoclavable polypropylene for reusability and often graduated with a writing patch
- Available in a variety of colors, including amber and black for light sensitive samples
- Tube bottom shapes include conical and skirted (self-standing)
Research Products International Corp Micro-Tubes w/ Screw Cap, Brown, 2.0ml, Free Standing, 1000/cs
Dark brown color tubes block light transmission that can adversely affect fluorescent and other light sensitive samples. Polypropylene tubes withstand high speed centrifugation (up to 17,000xg), autoclaving, boiling and freezer storage. Screw cap with ''O'' ring provides superior sealing during sample processing. Tubes and caps are supplied in separate bags.

Research Products International Corp Micro-Centrifuge Tubes, 2.0ml Capacity, Graduated 100ul, Assorted, 500 per Case
Micro-Centrifuge Tubes have molded external graduation marks at 100µl increments that are clear and easy to read, similar in style to marks used on graduated glassware. Tubes have a flat frosted top and a frosted marking area on the side of tube for writing. Hinged lid provides a soft piercing point for inserting a needle. Made from a clear copolymer designed for high speed centrifugation and boiling.
Andwin Scientific 1.5 ML MICROCENTRIFUGE TUBE P
The 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube has an attached flat cap that makes this product ideal for boiling. It also has graduations every 100 l that allow precise sample measurement. The tube is made with polypropylene and is free of RNase, DNase, DNA, and pyrogen. It comes in a bag of 500 tubes in assorted neon colors of blue, green, orange, red, violet, and yellow.
