Frequently Asked Questions
Are these microcentrifuge tubes sterile?
No. These tubes ship non-sterile. For applications requiring sterility, autoclave PPC tubes per your validated cycle or select a pre-sterilized format.
What does the tethered cap design provide?
Each cap stays attached to its tube, reducing dropped or misplaced lids during high-throughput steps and helping keep samples paired with their original tube.
Can these tubes be centrifuged and what RCF do they tolerate?
They are built for standard microcentrifuge use. Confirm the maximum rated RCF against your specific rotor and protocol, and balance tubes before each spin.
What is the pack configuration and SKU?
SKU 214-3410-B80 ships as 250 tubes per bag in blue. Pricing is listed per pack.
