Globe Scientific Capillary Tube Bulb Overview
The Globe Scientific Capillary Tube Bulb (SKU 51674) is a fitted accessory designed to pair with capillary tubes for controlled aspiration and dispensing. Lab technicians use this bulb to draw small fluid volumes by hand, replacing mouth pipetting with a safer manual technique. Each unit ships individually, making it simple to match quantities to bench needs.
Capillary tube bulbs serve a single, focused purpose: applying gentle, repeatable suction at the open end of a capillary. Reliable fit at the tube interface helps technicians maintain sample integrity during transfer. Compatibility specifics beyond the manufacturer description are listed as Contact for specification.

Laboratory Applications
Capillary tube bulbs support manual sample collection in hematology, microscopy, and general bench work where small fluid volumes move through narrow-bore tubes. Technicians fit the bulb to a capillary, then compress and release to draw or expel liquid with hand control. This method removes the hazard of mouth pipetting in routine sampling.
Common settings include clinical labs preparing blood smears, research benches handling reagents, and educational labs teaching capillary technique. Because the bulb relies on simple hand pressure, it works without instrumentation or power, keeping fieldwork and high-throughput stations flexible. Verify capillary diameter compatibility for your specific tubes before use.
