Frequently asked questions

Are high-quality virgin thermoplastics used?

Yes, Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are precision-molded from virgin thermoplastics to ensure the highest standards of chemical cleanliness and dimensional uniformity. This means they are manufactured without mold release agents, which is crucial for preventing interference in sensitive tests like Radioimmunoassay (RIA).

These high-quality materials are offered in two primary options to suit different laboratory needs:

  • Polystyrene (PS): Generally chosen for applications requiring superior clarity.
  • Polypropylene (PP): Selected for its durability and chemical resistance. A specialized Low Surface Tension Polypropylene variant is also available for specific applications that require minimal sample retention.
What high-quality materials are used for the culture tubes?

The Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are precision-molded from high-quality virgin thermoplastics, ensuring exceptional uniformity in size and shape. Crucially, they are chemically clean and manufactured without mold release agents to prevent errors and interference in sensitive procedures, such as Radioimmunoassay (RIA).

These tubes are available in several materials, allowing you to select the best option for your application:

  • Polystyrene: Suitable for standard, routine laboratory procedures.
  • Polypropylene (PP): Offers superior durability and chemical resistance, making it ideal for applications like bacteriology and coagulation studies.
  • Low Surface Tension Polypropylene: A specialized variant engineered to minimize sample adherence to the tube walls, maximizing sample recovery for critical assays.
Are these high-quality culture tubes chemically clean?

Yes, Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are manufactured to be chemically clean and ready for immediate laboratory use.

This high level of purity is achieved through several key features:

  • Precision Molding: They are constructed from virgin thermoplastics (available in Polystyrene and Polypropylene) ensuring consistency and quality.
  • Chemical Purity: The manufacturing process does not use mold release agents. This is critical because mold release agents can cause significant interference and errors, especially in sensitive laboratory procedures.
  • Reliable Results: Their chemical cleanliness makes them ideal for critical procedures such as Radioimmunoassay (RIA), bacteriology, and coagulation testing, ensuring reliable experimental results.
What are the available sizes and volumes?

Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are precision-molded from virgin thermoplastics, ensuring dimensional uniformity and high reliability for demanding laboratory applications such as RIA, bacteriology, and coagulation studies. These tubes are designed to be chemically clean and are available in various standard configurations:

Dimension (Diameter x Length) Capacity (Volume)
12 x 75 mm 5 mL
13 x 100 mm 7.2 mL or 8 mL
17 x 95 mm 12 mL or 14 mL

The tubes are also offered in multiple material options, including Polypropylene, Polystyrene, and Low Surface Tension Polypropylene, allowing selection based on specific chemical or physical requirements.

Do these tubes offer a Dual Position Cap?

Yes, specific variants of the Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are equipped with a Dual Position Cap, providing enhanced flexibility for laboratory handling. Other configurations come with a standard closure cap.

Are these tubes chemically clean for sensitive testing?

Yes, these Simport disposable culture tubes are manufactured to be chemically clean and suitable for sensitive assays.

Key features ensuring purity and reliability include:

  • Absence of Mold Release Agents: They are manufactured specifically without mold release agents. This is crucial for preventing interference or errors in sensitive assays, such as Radioimmunoassay (RIA) protocols.
  • High-Quality Construction: The tubes are precision-molded from virgin thermoplastics, ensuring a consistently clean surface and high dimensional uniformity.

This chemical purity makes them reliable for sensitive laboratory procedures, including RIA, coagulation testing, and bacteriology.

What procedures are these culture tubes designed for?

These disposable culture tubes are manufactured to be chemically clean and precise, making them suitable for several routine and sensitive laboratory applications, including:

  • Bacteriology
  • Coagulation studies
  • RIA (Radioimmunoassay)

They are especially valued for RIA testing because they are manufactured from virgin thermoplastics and contain no mold release agents, which prevents interference during sensitive chemical analyses.

What are the available packaging sizes?

The Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are offered in various packaging sizes to accommodate different laboratory needs, with common configurations including:

  • Bulk Cases: Tubes are available in large cases containing 1,000 tubes (1000/cs).
  • Smaller Packs: Tubes can also be packaged in smaller units of 250 tubes per pack (250/pk), which are typically bundled as 4 packs per case.
What is the typical lead time for delivery?

The standard lead time for the Simport Disposable Culture Tubes is typically 4–5 weeks, as they ship directly from the manufacturer (Canada or US). It is important to note that several configurations are currently on manufacturer backorder with no specific estimated time of arrival (ETA).

What are the available dimensions and capacities?

The Simport Disposable Culture Tubes are precision-molded from virgin thermoplastics, ensuring they are chemically clean and offer reliable dimensional uniformity for sensitive applications like RIA, bacteriology, and coagulation studies. Tubes are available in a variety of sizes and materials to meet specific laboratory needs:

  • Capacity/Volume Range: 5mL, 7.2mL, 8mL, 12mL, and 14mL.
  • Dimensions (Diameter x Length): Available sizes include 12 x 75mm, 13 x 100mm, and 17 x 95mm.
  • Material Options: You can choose from standard Polystyrene or Polypropylene, as well as specialized Low Surface Tension Polypropylene for particular liquid handling requirements.
