Description
Improve sample recovery by significantly reducing surface binding with Thermo Scientific™ Snap Cap Low Retention Microcentrifuge Tubes. Viscous liquids and costly reagents retained in a microcentrifuge tube effect assay accuracy and precision. With no additives or coatings, these tubes — available in 0.6mL, 1.5mL and 2.0mL sizes — offer maximum sample recovery by significantly reducing surface binding.
The duckbill cap reduces the pressure required to open the tube with a wider contact surface, yet ensures the cap will remain closed during centrifugation
Low retention properties are not achieved by a coating or plastic-embedding processes, ensuring that samples will not be contaminated from these additives
Tubes will remain closed during centrifugation yet open easily with one hand as needed
Tubes are available in amber to protect your light-sensitive samples
Graduation marks on the microcentrifuge tube allow for effective sample reference
Color/Packaging Options
A variety of packaging options are available to help with contamination control in the lab
For stringent sterility requirements, individually wrapped sterile tubes are available
Color options, in addition to natural and amber, are red, blue, green, yellow and violet and a mixed color packaging
