conical centrifuge tubes (commonly called Falcon tubes), which are used for the storage, separation, and processing of samples in laboratory centrifuges.
Visual Details
Design and Capacity: Both tubes are designed to hold up to 50ml of liquid. They feature a distinct conical bottom, which helps concentrate small pellets or precipitates during centrifugation.
Graduations and Labeling:
The upright tube shows clear white graduation marks ranging from 5ml to 50ml for approximate volume measurement.
Both tubes include a large white writing area on the side for easy sample identification.
Caps: They are equipped with blue screw-on caps. These typically feature a flat-top design for easy labeling and are made to provide a leak-proof seal during high-speed spinning.
Material: The tubes are made of transparent polypropylene, which is chemically resistant and capable of withstanding high centrifugal forces.
