Frequently asked questions
Are these tubes made from borosilicate glass?
Yes, they are manufactured from premium-quality borosilicate glass, which is chemically inert. This material is superior to standard soda lime glass as it helps reduce pH changes and minimizes the risk of contaminants leaching into your samples.
Can these be used in blood bank applications?
Absolutely. These tubes are engineered for demanding professional environments, including blood banks, tissue culture, and clinical research laboratories, where chemical resistance and reliability are essential.
Are the rims polished for safety?
Yes, each tube features a fire-polished rim. This professional finish provides a smooth edge, ensuring both safety and ease of use during routine laboratory tasks.
Do these tubes arrive sterile?
No, these test tubes are nonsterile. They are designed for professional laboratory use and are packaged in shrink-wrapped, heavy-duty boxes to maintain a clean, particle-free environment until they are ready to be processed or sterilized in your facility.
Are these tubes suitable for multiple uses?
No, these tubes are intended for single-use only. Please do not reuse them to ensure the integrity of your laboratory results and to prevent cross-contamination.
Are these tubes chemically inert?
Yes, thanks to the borosilicate glass construction, these tubes offer high chemical resistance. This creates an inert environment for sensitive samples and helps prevent pH fluctuations or contamination during testing.
Are these tubes sold with closures?
No, these tubes are supplied without closures. They are designed as open-top, round-bottom tubes intended for professional laboratory applications.
Will these fit standard laboratory racks?
Yes, these tubes are produced with rigidly controlled dimensional specifications (12 mm diameter x 75 mm length), ensuring consistent performance and compatibility with standard laboratory equipment and racks.
How are the tubes protected during shipping?
To prevent breakage and ensure cleanliness, the 1000 tubes are packed in heavy-duty boxes and individually shrink-wrapped in plastic film. This ensures they arrive particle-free and intact.
Are these manufactured to professional standards?
Yes, these tubes are produced in an ISO 9001:2008 certified factory. This certification ensures consistent, high-quality manufacturing standards for every tube in the case.
