Description
Plug for drosophila cultivation tubes is a specialised foam stopper for secure closure of Drosophila culture vessels in genetics and developmental biology work. Made of polyurethane (PU) foam with a diameter of 50 mm, it combines a snug fit with gas exchange needed for healthy fly stocks. The mite-safe design helps protect cultures from mite contamination during routine rearing and stock maintenance. Soft foam construction seats firmly in standard cultivation tubes while remaining easy to insert and remove in daily husbandry. Pack size is 100 pc(s) with a total weight of 0,400 kg, supporting high-throughput fly rooms and teaching laboratories. These plugs from manufacturer Carl ROTH suit microbiology, molecular biology, and cell-culture environments that rely on tube-based Drosophila systems. They integrate into existing culture-tube workflows where consistent, breathable, mite-resistant closures are required for long-term culture stability and reliable experimental stocks.
This article is part of Test tubes, in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Plug for drosophila cultivation tubes, made of foam (PU), Ø 50 mm, mite-safe
What is this article?
Plug for drosophila cultivation tubes, made of foam (PU), Ø 50 mm, mite-safe is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Test tubes, inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A test tube is the open cylindrical vessel for a small liquid, in borosilicate glass or in plastic. Rimmed and rimless mouths differ. The size is diameter by length. It is not graduated for a result, and a glass tube that will be centrifuged has a force limit.
A tube holds a small sample upright. A test tube is the open glass or plastic cylinder. A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet forms at the tip, and it is rated for a centrifugal force the rotor will actually reach. A vial is a small closed bottle, often for a sample that will sit in an instrument. NMR tubes are a special case: the glass has to be uniform or the spectrum is the tube, not the sample. Laboratory ware is listed under ISO laboratory glassware.
