Globe Scientific 13 x 100mm Polypropylene Test Tube (8mL) Overview
The Globe Scientific 13 x 100mm Polypropylene Test Tube (8mL) gives laboratories a durable plastic alternative to glass for routine sample handling. Molded from polypropylene (PP), each tube measures 13 x 100mm and holds up to 8mL. SKU 110445 ships in a case of 1,000 units, supporting high-throughput workflows without frequent reordering.
Polypropylene construction resists shattering, making these tubes a practical choice for busy benches, centrifuge-adjacent steps, and sample transport. Lightweight handling reduces strain during repetitive tasks, while the 13 x 100mm format fits standard tube racks and many automated platforms.
Procurement teams favor this configuration for predictable consumption planning. Each case delivers consistent dimensions and capacity, helping standardize protocols across departments and shifts.

Laboratory Applications
Polypropylene tubes in the 13 x 100mm format suit sample collection, aliquoting, and short-term storage across clinical, research, and industrial labs. Their break-resistant material handles routine transfers and rack-based organization where glass poses a hazard. Many teams deploy them for reagent preparation and dilution series.
The 8mL capacity fits a range of volumetric tasks, from buffer staging to specimen holding. Standard 13mm diameter compatibility means these tubes integrate with common racks, caps, and bench fixtures. Verify chemical compatibility and any sterility or autoclave requirements against your specific protocol before use.
