Frequently Asked Questions
Are these microcentrifuge tubes sterile?
No. These tubes are supplied non-sterile, making them ideal for general sample handling, storage, and routine prep where sterility is not required.
What is the tethered cap and why does it matter?
The tethered snap cap stays attached to the tube body, reducing the risk of dropped or lost caps and cross-contamination during repeated open-and-close steps at the bench.
What material are the tubes made from?
They are molded from polypropylene copolymer (PPC), which offers good clarity, durability, and resistance to typical centrifugation stresses for 1.5 mL applications.
How many tubes come in each pack?
Each pack contains 250 tubes per bag (250/Bag), with lot numbers printed for traceability in regulated lab environments.
