Description
Nalgene™ polycarbonate centrifuge bottles support harvesting, pelleting and protein purification of large cell volumes in the laboratory. Each round bottle offers a nominal capacity of 500 ml (0,5 l) and is supplied with a polypropylene screw closure for secure sealing during centrifugation. Made from polycarbonate (PC), the bottles are autoclavable and rated to a maximum force of 13 700 × g, making them suitable for demanding runs with Fiberlite™ rotors. They are not graduated and do not support dispensing through the closure, focusing performance on bulk cell processing and clarification steps. Available as a case of 24 (4 per pack) from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics, these bottles provide a practical format for medium- to large-volume centrifuge workflows where clarity, mechanical strength and repeated autoclave cycles matter. Use them wherever robust PC bottles with included PP screw caps are required for cell harvest and protein work-up.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Centrifuge Bottles
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Centrifuge Bottles is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
