Features of 5 mL Centrifuge Tubes

• Capacity: As the name suggests, these tubes have a maximum volume capacity of 5 milliliters (mL). The tubes are typically marked with volume indicators to facilitate accurate measurement of sample volumes.
• Material: 5 mL centrifuge tubes are made of polypropylene, a plastic material that is chemically resistant and compatible with a wide range of laboratory reagents and solutions. Polypropylene tubes are also autoclavable, allowing sterilization of the tubes when necessary.
• Shape: 5 mL centrifuge tubes with a conical or round bottom that enables efficient pelleting of particles or cells during centrifugation. The conical shape helps in the separation of components based on density, with the denser material collecting at the bottom of the tube.
• Secure closure: These tubes come with snap caps to ensure a tight and secure closure. This prevents sample leakage or contamination during centrifugation or storage.
• Compatibility: 5 mL centrifuge tubes are compatible with various laboratory centrifuges that can accommodate their size. They are suitable for applications such as pelleting, cell separation, microcentrifugation, and storage of small sample volumes.
• Graduated markings: The tubes usually have clear, easy-to-read volume markings on the side, allowing precise measurement of liquid volumes. These markings are useful for accurately dispensing and transferring samples.
• Sterile options: Hawach provides sterile 5 mL centrifuge tubes, which are pre-treated to be free from microorganisms. Sterile tubes are particularly important for cell culture work and other applications requiring aseptic conditions.

Application

5 mL centrifuge tubes are commonly used in various scientific applications, including sample preparation, cell culture, protein purification, and DNA isolation. They are compatible with most laboratory centrifuges and can be easily labeled for sample identification.

It’s worth noting that while 5 mL centrifuge tubes are commonly used in laboratories, other tube sizes, such as 1.5 mL and 2 mL, are also widely used depending on the volume requirements of the experiment or procedure.

 

 

5 mL centrifuge tubes, also known as 5 mL microcentrifuge tubes, are small cylindrical containers used for centrifugation and storage of small volumes of liquid samples in laboratory settings. Here are some key features and uses of 5 mL centrifuge tubes
