Globe Scientific 50mL Oak Ridge Round Bottom Centrifuge Tube Overview
The Globe Scientific 50mL Oak Ridge Round Bottom Centrifuge Tube (SKU 6322) is a polypropylene tube built for high-speed separation work. Its attached screw cap reduces sample loss and keeps closures matched to each vessel during repetitive runs. Round-bottom geometry supports even pellet formation and efficient fluid recovery.
Molded from polypropylene, this tube resists many aqueous and chemical media common to research and clinical settings. Oak Ridge styling gives the wall structure favored for centrifugation protocols requiring a durable, reusable format. Each unit ships 12 per box for stocked benches and shared workspaces.
Lab managers sourcing repeatable consumables can standardize on this configuration across teams. Procurement officers gain a single SKU with defined box and master-case quantities for straightforward reordering.

Laboratory Applications
Oak Ridge tubes serve cell harvesting, pelleting, and density separation across molecular biology and biochemistry labs. Round-bottom format suits fixed-angle rotor work where strong pellet packing matters. Polypropylene construction makes these tubes a practical fit for protein, nucleic acid, and microbial processing steps.
Screw caps help contain samples during transport between centrifuge and workstation. Researchers running solvent extractions, gradient prep, or routine concentration steps can rely on the reusable design to lower per-sample cost over time. Confirm chemical and temperature compatibility for your specific protocol before use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What material are these centrifuge tubes made from?
These tubes are molded from polypropylene (PP), a material widely used for centrifuge consumables. Verify compatibility with your reagents and operating temperatures before each application.
How many tubes come in a box and a master case?
Each box holds 12 tubes. A master case contains 72 units organized into 6 boxes, suited to facilities standardizing high-volume centrifugation workflows.
Do these tubes include caps?
Yes. Every tube features an attached screw cap, keeping each closure paired with its vessel and reducing the chance of misplaced or mismatched caps during processing.
