Product Description
Skip the thumb strain and splashing that come with pressing snap caps onto culture tubes. DuoClick™ tubes use a patent-pending screw closure with two defined positions, so a quick quarter turn to the first click sets the tube for aerobic growth and a further half turn past the second click locks in a leakproof, airtight seal for anaerobic work.
This listing is for MTC Bio catalog number T8734, the DuoClick™ Culture Tube. Tubes come in 5 mL (12 x 75 mm) and 14 mL (17 x 100 mm) sizes in polypropylene or polystyrene, with printed graduations and a flat cap top you can write on. Sterile versions have the cap already attached and are packed in bags of 25, foam racks of 50 or individual wraps. Non-sterile polypropylene tubes are also offered in bulk cases of 1,000 with the caps packed separately. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your bench stocked with dependable MTC Bio supplies.
