16x100mm centrifugal conical tube

16x100 Centrifugal Conical Tube
 
Material Composition:
Crafted from high-quality, medical-grade polypropylene (PP), this conical tube is resistant to a wide range of chemicals and designed to withstand high-speed centrifugation. The polypropylene ensures transparency for easy observation of contents and offers excellent durability in both low and high temperatures.
 
Product Overview:
The 16x100 mm Centrifugal Conical Tube is designed for laboratory applications involving the separation of fluids, solids, and other mixtures. The tube’s conical shape enhances sedimentation efficiency by directing the sample to the narrow bottom tip during centrifugation, making it ideal for a variety of laboratory techniques including sample storage, centrifugation, and specimen preparation.
 
Dimensions and Capacity:
Diameter: 16 mm
Length: 100 mm
Capacity: Typically holds up to 12-15 mL of liquid, making it suitable for both small and medium-volume samples.
 
Key Features:
High-Speed Centrifugation Resistant: Built to withstand centrifugation at high speeds (up to 10,000 x g), ensuring stable separation of components without the risk of breakage or deformation.
Leakproof Screw Cap: Comes with a secure, leakproof cap that prevents sample loss during transportation or centrifugation. The cap is tightly fitted to prevent contamination while providing ease of opening and closing.
Conical Design: The tapered bottom design ensures easy and efficient sedimentation, directing particles or liquids to the base for improved separation and collection. The narrow tip facilitates easy pipetting and precise sample retrieval.
Graduated Markings: The clear, easy-to-read graduations in 0.5 mL increments along the side of the tube allow for accurate measurement of sample volumes.
Sterile or Non-Sterile Options: Available in both sterile and non-sterile formats, depending on your laboratory’s needs. Sterile tubes are gamma-irradiated and free from endotoxins, pyrogens, and DNA, ensuring sample integrity.
 
Applications:
Centrifugation: Ideal for separating biological samples such as blood, urine, or tissue homogenates into their constituent components. The conical design is especially useful for pelleting precipitates, cells, or organelles.
Sample Storage: Suitable for short- or long-term storage of samples, reagents, or buffers. The polypropylene material is resistant to temperature fluctuations, allowing for safe freezing and thawing.
Specimen Collection: Widely used in clinical settings for the collection and preparation of biological specimens. The conical bottom helps concentrate small volumes of sample for further analysis.
Research and Development: Commonly used in research laboratories for the preparation, handling, and storage of various chemical and biological solutions.
 
Features and Benefits:
Chemical Resistant: Resistant to most acids, bases, and organic solvents, making it versatile for a wide range of laboratory applications involving harsh chemicals.
Temperature Resistant: Capable of withstanding temperatures ranging from -80°C to +120°C, allowing for safe usage in cold storage and autoclaving.
Clear Visibility: The transparent design allows for easy viewing of sample volumes and contents, ensuring precise observation during centrifugation or sample analysis.
Autoclavable: The tube can be autoclaved for sterilization, ensuring safe reuse in laboratories that require sterile conditions for sample processing.
Durability: High mechanical strength ensures that the tube maintains its integrity even during high-speed centrifugation or freeze-thaw cycles.
 
Packaging and Customization:
Packaging Options: Tubes can be packaged individually or in bulk to suit laboratory requirements. Bulk packaging is typically used for non-sterile tubes, while sterile tubes are individually wrapped to prevent contamination.
Customization: Tube labeling and cap colors can be customized for branding or differentiation purposes, ensuring easy identification of samples in larger laboratory setups.
