Frequently asked questions
Are these tubes manufactured to high standards?
Yes, these tubes are manufactured in the United States and are fully BAA (Buy American Act) and TAA (Trade Agreement Act) compliant, ensuring they meet rigorous institutional and professional quality standards.
Is the material durable for laboratory use?
The tubes are constructed from premium-grade Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET). This material is chosen for its:
- High-clarity transparency for easy specimen inspection.
- Structural integrity during standard laboratory handling and transport.
Does the pull cap design prevent leakage?
Yes, the yellow pull cap is specifically engineered to provide an efficient and secure seal. This design is intended to minimize the risk of leakage, ensuring the specimen remains safely contained during transport between collection and analysis.
Is this tube suitable for routine urinalysis?
Absolutely. With a 10.5 mL volume capacity and a standard 16 x 100 mm dimension, it is purpose-built to be a standard, reliable solution for routine urinalysis workflows in medical and diagnostic settings.
Are these tubes provided in a sterile state?
Yes, these are professional-grade, sterile tubes. They are specifically engineered for clinical and laboratory use to maintain specimen integrity from the moment of collection until the final analysis.
Are there any chemical additives in these tubes?
No, these are Plain (No Additive) tubes. They are designed for urinalysis procedures where the specimen must remain in its natural state without interference from chemical preservatives or additives.
Can I easily label these for patient records?
Each tube comes with a pre-printed, large adhesive label that includes clear, dedicated fields for essential patient information, such as:
- Patient Name and Number
- Date of Birth and Date
- Time and Ward
- Signature
What is the physical shape of the tube bottom?
The tube features a round-bottom design, which is standard for laboratory equipment and helps ensure the tube is compatible with most common laboratory racks and centrifuge holders.
How should these tubes be stored or handled?
While the tubes are durable, they should be kept in a controlled laboratory environment. Because they are Factory New and sterile, they should remain in their original packaging until use to ensure they remain contaminant-free for clinical application.
Is the 10.5 mL capacity accurate for testing?
Yes, the tube is precisely sized at 10.5 mL to accommodate standard volumes required for routine urinalysis. The PET construction ensures that the internal volume is maintained securely throughout the testing process.
