Product Description
Everyday molecular biology runs on reliable microtubes, and these clear conical tubes with locking caps are built to be dependable. The lock cap keeps lids closed during vortexing, heating and spinning. Sizes are 0.6 mL and 1.5 mL, each offered sterile or non-sterile.
This listing is for NEST catalog number 615601: 1.5 mL Microcentrifuge Tube, Clear, Conical Bottom, Lock Cap, Sterile, 50 per Bag, Case of 4,000 (10 Packs x 400). Tubes are molded from additive-free USP Class VI polypropylene, so nothing leaches into sensitive samples, and they tolerate -80°C to 121°C. Production follows cGMP in ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001 facilities with ISO 7 cleanroom molding, and lots are tested free of pyrogens, cytotoxins, DNase, RNase, DNA and BSE/TSE. LIGHT LABS stocks the NEST Scientific line and ships quickly from our Englewood, Colorado team.
