Frequently asked questions
Does this glass resist chemical reactions?
Yes, these tubes are constructed from high-quality, chemically inert borosilicate glass. This material is specifically chosen for its excellent chemical resistance, which significantly minimizes the risk of sample contamination and prevents pH fluctuations.
Is this glass durable enough for clinical labs?
Absolutely. These tubes are designed for rigorous laboratory environments, including blood bank testing and tissue culture. The borosilicate composition offers superior durability compared to standard soda-lime glass, ensuring reliable performance in professional settings.
Are the tubes uniform for precise testing?
Yes, they are manufactured under rigorous dimensional controls. This precision ensures that each tube meets consistent specifications, providing the uniformity required for sensitive and repeatable laboratory procedures.
Are the rims safe for manual handling?
Yes, every tube features fire-polished rims. This process ensures the edges are smooth and free of sharp points, promoting safe and comfortable handling during manual laboratory tasks.
Does the material contain any latex?
No, these test tubes are not made with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for laboratories that require latex-free consumables.
How are these protected during shipping?
To ensure they arrive in pristine condition, the tubes are delivered in heavy-duty, shrink-wrapped packaging. This protective method not only guards against breakage during transit but also ensures the tubes remain free of environmental particulates.
Do these work with standard storage racks?
Yes, with a diameter of 13 mm, these tubes are fully compatible with standard laboratory racks and storage solutions designed to accommodate that specific size.
Is the construction high-quality for research?
The tubes are produced in an ISO 9001:2008 certified facility, reflecting a commitment to high manufacturing standards and quality management suitable for clinical and research applications.
What is the total capacity of these tubes?
Each tube has a volume capacity of 7 mL, providing an ideal size for a variety of diagnostic and testing procedures.
Are these tubes clean enough for sensitive samples?
Yes, the combination of borosilicate glass and the shrink-wrapped, particle-free packaging ensures that the tubes maintain a high level of cleanliness, reducing the risk of sample contamination right out of the box.
