Description
Graduated microcentrifuge tubes with a 1,7 ml capacity and ultra-low retention (ULR) surfaces support precise handling of small-volume samples in molecular biology and routine centrifugation. The tubes are free from human DNA and tested free of DNase, RNase and PCR inhibitors, making them suitable for sensitive nucleic-acid workflows. They tolerate centrifugal forces up to 20000 × g, can be frozen down to −80 °C and are autoclavable at 121 °C. Sterilisation is carried out by gamma irradiation, and a sterilisation certificate is available as a free download. Low-retention technology improves performance with viscous samples and helps maximise recovery when complete sample retrieval is required. Clear graduations assist volume control during pipetting, mixing and intermediate storage. Offered as a pack of 1000 pieces from manufacturer Labbox, these tubes fit high-throughput PCR preparation, sample archiving and general microcentrifugation tasks where contamination control and reproducible recovery matter. The pack has a net weight of 0,742 kg and is intended for laboratory centrifuge accessory use.

Questions about Graduated microcentrifuge tubes, 1.7 ml, ULR, 1000 pcs
What is this article?
Graduated microcentrifuge tubes, 1.7 ml, ULR, 1000 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Centrifuge tubes (conical), inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet collects at the tip, and it is rated for a relative centrifugal force. A 15 mL tube and a 50 mL tube are different rotors. Polypropylene is the ordinary plastic. The cap has to survive the same force as the tube.
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.
