Globe Scientific Oak Ridge Centrifuge Tube, 70mL Overview
The Globe Scientific Centrifuge Tube, 70mL, Oak Ridge Round Bottom Style (SKU 6323) is a polypropylene tube built for high-speed separation work. Each tube features a round bottom and an attached screw cap, giving technicians a secure seal without searching for loose closures during fast-paced workflows.
Polypropylene construction supports repeated use across demanding protocols. Round-bottom Oak Ridge designs distribute force during spins, making this format a long-standing choice for ultracentrifugation and high-g applications. Lab managers stocking shared facilities value the attached cap, which reduces cross-contamination risk and lost-component reordering.
Packaged 12 tubes per bag, this configuration suits both single-bench teams and multi-lab institutions. Procurement officers can scale orders from a single bag up to full master cases through LabSupplies.com.

Laboratory Applications
Oak Ridge tubes serve protocols requiring durable, high-capacity vessels under centrifugal force. Researchers rely on this format for cell harvesting, pelleting, density-based separations, and protein precipitation. Polypropylene chemical resistance broadens compatibility across solvents and reagents common in molecular biology and biochemistry workflows.
The 70mL volume bridges the gap between small microtubes and large bottles, supporting mid-scale preparations. Attached caps help maintain sample integrity during transport between rotors, ultracentrifuges, and storage. Core, environmental, and academic labs use round-bottom tubes wherever repeated high-speed runs are standard practice.
