Frequently asked questions
Do these tubes offer high chemical resistance and durability?
<p>Key features ensuring their resilience include:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Material Quality:</strong> They are manufactured from durable <strong>polypropylene</strong>, ensuring they are shatterproof and highly resistant to common laboratory chemicals, which protects sample integrity.</li>
<li><strong>Broad Temperature Range:</strong> The tubes maintain structural integrity across an extensive functional range, from cryogenic temperatures as low as <strong>-90°C</strong> up to <strong>+121°C</strong> (suitable for autoclaving).</li>
<li><strong>Secure Containment:</strong> They are equipped with a secure, <strong>leakproof screw cap</strong>, crucial for the safe transport and storage of sensitive or hazardous biological materials like urine or sputum.</li>
<li><strong>Stability:</strong> The conical design features a <strong>self-standing base</strong> for easy and stable handling.</li>
</ul>
Are both sterile and non-sterile options available?
What is the functional temperature range?
<p>This wide tolerance ensures versatility for various laboratory needs:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Low Temperature Tolerance:</strong> Reliable down to <strong>-90°C</strong>, suitable for deep-freeze storage.</li>
<li><strong>High Temperature Tolerance:</strong> Capable of handling temperatures up to <strong>+121°C</strong>, which permits sterilization via autoclaving.</li>
</ul>
Is the included screw cap leakproof?
<p>This crucial design feature ensures maximum integrity for your samples:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Secure Containment:</strong> Prevents spillage and contamination during the transport and storage of liquids and particulate samples (including biological fluids like urine and sputum).</li>
<li><strong>Durability:</strong> Paired with the shatterproof, chemically resistant polypropylene tube, the cap maintains its seal across the full functional temperature range, from <strong>-90°C to +121°C</strong>.</li>
</ul>
Do these tubes have accurate molded graduations?
<p>Key features of the volume markings:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Range:</strong> Graduations span from <strong>10ml</strong> up to the full <strong>50ml</strong> capacity.</li>
<li><strong>Increments:</strong> Measurements are clearly marked in precise <strong>5ml increments</strong>.</li>
</ul>
Are both sterile and non-sterile configurations offered?
<p>The key differences between the variants are the cap color and packaging:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Sterile Variant:</strong> Features a <strong>Green Cap</strong> and is packaged 25 tubes per bag (20 bags per case).</li>
<li><strong>Non-Sterile Variant:</strong> Features a <strong>Yellow Cap</strong> and is packaged 100 tubes per bag (5 bags per case).</li>
</ul>
What is the functional temperature range?
<ul>
<li>The functional temperature range extends from a low of <strong>-90°C</strong> up to a high of <strong>+121°C</strong>.</li>
<li>This broad range allows for both <strong>cryogenic freezing</strong> for long-term storage and high-heat sterilization processes like <strong>autoclaving</strong>.</li>
<li>The durable, shatterproof <strong>polypropylene</strong> construction ensures the tubes maintain their integrity throughout this extensive temperature span.</li>
</ul>
Do these tubes offer high chemical resistance?
<p>They are constructed entirely from durable, high-quality <strong>polypropylene</strong>, which is inherently resistant to a wide range of chemicals and solvents. This ensures maximum sample integrity and safety during storage and transport, particularly when handling potentially hazardous materials.</p>
<p>Additionally, the polypropylene material is <strong>shatterproof</strong>, making the tubes safe for handling and reliable across a wide functional temperature range (from -90°C to +121°C).</p>
