Description
Sterile culture tubes, PS, graduated are ready-to-use vessels for microbiology, molecular biology, and cell-culture workflows. Each tube provides a 5 ml capacity, is manufactured from polystyrene, and combines graduation marks with a screw cap for secure closure during incubation, mixing, storage, or transport. Single packing maintains sterility until opening, supporting aseptic handling for individual cultures and critical sample steps. The transparent PS wall allows visual inspection of media, growth, or sample appearance, while the screw closure helps limit evaporation and contamination at the bench. Supplied as 500 pc(s) per unit, the format suits laboratories that process many separate cultures or prefer individually packed tubes for selective use. These sterile graduated culture tubes from manufacturer SIMPORT are intended for routine culture work, sample collection, short-term holding of liquid media, and small-scale cell suspensions. Clear volume markings assist approximate filling, and the 5 ml size covers common volumes used in research and diagnostic-support laboratories handling liquid cultures and related assays.
This article is part of Test tubes, in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Sterile culture tubes, PS, graduated, 5 ml, with screw cap, single packed
What is this article?
Sterile culture tubes, PS, graduated, 5 ml, with screw cap, single packed is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes SIMPORT 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.
