What is a microcentrifuge tube used for?
Microcentrifuge tubes are routinely used in many aspects of molecular biology. These conical 1.5 mL tubes are ideal for the processing and storage of small volume samples, extracts and reagents.
What is a microfuge tube?
Microcentrifuge tubes or microfuge tubes are small, cylindrical plastic containers with conical bottoms, typically with an integral snap cap. They are used in molecular biology and biochemistry to store and centrifuge small amounts of liquid.
Are microcentrifuge tubes polypropylene?
These Conical-Bottom Microcentrifuge tubes are made of super-clear, high-quality USP Class 6 gamma resistant polypropylene. These Conical-Bottom Microcentrifuge tubes are made of super-clear, high-quality USP Class 6 gamma resistant polypropylene.
Do you need to autoclave PCR tubes?
You do not need to autoclave PCR tubes, and it may be worse, not better to do so. Sterile is not the same as clean. You care about contaminating DNA (primed by your primers) not a few cells which won’t replicate at 95C. An autoclave can be a source, not a cure for this contamination.
How full should centrifuge tubes be?
Note that you should never overfill a centrifuge tube as it can cause leakages. The maximum you should ever fill a centrifuge tube is ¾ full. Some ultracentrifuge tubes, however, must be filled to the top to prevent collapse. You also need to ensure that you don’t underfill the tubes either.
Can you autoclave microcentrifuge tubes?
Microcentrifuge Tube Storage Boxes These rugged autoclavable storage boxes are molded in polycarbonate, and can be used at temperatures of -150°C to 121°C.
Can you autoclave 1.5 ml tubes?
Eppendorf tubes (made of plastic) are sometimes used in my lab for sample storage. Can they be autoclaved? yes, they can be autoclaved.
Why must tubes be balanced in a microcentrifuge?
What causes an imbalance? Rotors spin very rapidly and generate extreme forces. It’s therefore crucial to properly balance rotors during runs, especially when rotors are only partially loaded with tubes or plates.
Can you autoclave 1.5 mL tubes?
