Globe Scientific Urine Collection System, 12 mL Flared-Top Tube with Snap Cap — Yellow 500/Case & Blue 1000/Case
The Globe Scientific Urine Collection System pairs a 12 mL flared-top centrifuge tube with a leak-resistant snap cap for routine urinalysis, microscopic sediment review, and specimen transport. Color-coded caps streamline workflow segregation, while the flared rim aids pour-off and pipette access at the bench.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these urine collection tubes sterile?
No. Both the Yellow (112016) and Blue (112014) configurations are supplied non-sterile, which is standard for routine urinalysis and sediment review where sterility is not required.
What is the difference between the two SKUs besides cap color?
Beyond cap color, pack size differs: SKU 112016 ships 500/case in 5 bags, while SKU 112014 ships 1000/case. Both use the same 12 mL flared-top tube format.
Can these tubes be centrifuged for sediment analysis?
Yes. The flared-top conical design is intended for bench centrifugation to concentrate urine sediment before microscopic examination. Follow your rotor's rated speed limits for polystyrene tubes.
Is tiered pricing available for high-volume lab use?
Yes. Institutional and grant-funded tiered pricing is available through labsupplies.com. Request a quote with your annual usage for standing-order discounts.
