Diamond Midi Centrifuge Tube, 5.0 mL, Amber PP, Attached Snap Cap, Graduated — 200/Case
The Diamond Midi Centrifuge Tube bridges the gap between standard microcentrifuge tubes and conical tubes, delivering 5.0 mL capacity in a compact format. Manufactured from polypropylene with an amber tint, these graduated tubes suit light-sensitive sample storage, reagent aliquoting, and routine high-speed centrifugation across clinical and research benches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pack configuration for SKU 111578A?
Each case contains 200 tubes, packaged as 50 tubes per bag across 4 bags per unit. The listed price of $60.00 is per case.
Why are these tubes amber rather than clear?
The amber polypropylene reduces light transmission, helping protect photosensitive reagents, fluorescent dyes, and certain biological samples from degradation during storage.
Does the attached snap cap reduce the risk of cross-contamination?
Yes. The cap is integral to each tube, so there are no loose caps to mix up or drop, which streamlines handling and lowers contamination risk during repetitive workflows.
Are these tubes graduated for volume reading?
Yes. Molded graduations allow approximate volume estimation directly at the bench during aliquoting and dilution steps.
