Globe Scientific Individual PCR Tubes, Thin-Wall Polypropylene, 0.2 & 0.5 mL — Dome, Frosted Flat & Optically Clear qPCR Caps, 1000/Pack
These Globe Scientific Individual PCR Tubes deliver thin-wall, single-tube format for endpoint PCR, real-time qPCR, and small-batch DNA amplification where strip or plate formats aren't practical. Molded from virgin polypropylene with attached caps, each tube seats securely in standard thermal cycler blocks for uniform heat transfer and reproducible cycling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which cap format should I choose for real-time qPCR?
Select PCR-02FQ with the optically clear flat cap. Its low-autofluorescence top permits accurate fluorescence detection through the lid on real-time instruments, unlike dome or frosted caps intended for endpoint use.
Are these PCR tubes sterile or certified nuclease-free?
Tubes ship non-sterile. Confirm specific RNase/DNase and pyrogen status against the current Globe Scientific specification sheet for your lot before use in sensitive amplification protocols.
Will the 0.2 mL tubes fit standard thermal cyclers?
Yes. The thin-wall 0.2 mL design conforms to common 0.2 mL block geometry for uniform heat transfer; the 0.5 mL tubes seat in 0.5 mL blocks and adapters.
Why is the frosted flat cap useful?
The frosted surface accepts pen or marker labeling directly on the cap, aiding sample identification and batch tracking when tubes are processed individually rather than in indexed strips.
