Globe Scientific 0.1 mL PCR 8-Strip Tubes, Low Profile Natural & White PP, Separate Clear Flat Caps — 120 Strips/Pack
The Globe Scientific 0.1 mL PCR 8-Strip Tubes deliver thin-wall, low-profile construction for fast thermal transfer in real-time PCR, qPCR, and high-throughput amplification. Each strip holds eight 0.1 mL tubes molded from natural or white polypropylene, paired with separate clear flat 8-strip caps. White strips improve fluorescent signal reflection for sensitive quantitation runs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these tubes compatible with low-profile thermal cyclers?
Yes. The low-profile, thin-wall design is engineered for fast, uniform thermal transfer and fits standard low-profile cycler blocks used in PCR and qPCR.
Why choose white strips over natural?
White polypropylene reflects fluorescent light back toward the detector, improving signal sensitivity in real-time PCR. Natural tubes suit general endpoint amplification where optical reflection is not required.
Do the caps come attached to the tubes?
No. Both options ship with separate clear flat 8-strip caps, letting you select dome or flat closures independently and replace caps without discarding tube strips.
Are these tubes sterile or certified DNase/RNase-free?
These strips are supplied non-sterile. Confirm specific molecular-grade certifications for your protocol; lot numbers on each pack support documentation and traceability requirements.
