Product Description
Caps that stay shut through spins, vortexing and heat blocks protect your samples from leaks and cross-contamination. Axygen® MaxyClear SnapLock microcentrifuge tubes combine a positive-seal snap cap with crystal-clear polypropylene walls, so you can see pellets and phases instantly. Sizes run from 0.6 mL through 5.0 mL, with low-retention Maxymum Recovery® and amber options for demanding samples.
This listing is for Axygen catalog number MCT-150-X, the 1.5mL MaxyClear SnapLock Microcentrifuge Tubes, Graduated, Amber, sold as a full case of 5,000 (500/Pack). The tubes are molded from polypropylene, are RNase-/DNase-free and nonpyrogenic, and most sizes withstand up to 16,700 × g (14,000 × g for Maxymum Recovery® and 5.0 mL tubes). Frosted cap tops and side panels accept pen or pencil labels, molded graduations simplify volume checks, and a thin membrane at the cap center lets a syringe needle reach the sample without opening the tube. Nonsterile and sterile (bagged) versions are available, and each listing is sold by the full case. Order by the case from LIGHT LABS to keep your bench stocked.
