Micronic has announced that it is offering a range of flat-bottom, non-coded and alphanumeric tubes, available in 0.5ml, 0.75ml, 1.1ml and 1.4ml verions.
The company said the tubes' smooth external flat surface makes them an easier-to-read alternative to traditional round-bottom tubes for automated scanning applications.
The internal 'v' or 'u' bottom shape provides the lowest dead volume and enables maximum sample recovery.
Manufactured from medical grade polypropylene in a class seven cleanroom environment, Micronic flat-bottom alphanumeric tubes exhibit consistency, near-zero contaminants and compliance with US and European pharmacopoeia tests.
The tubes resist many organic solvents (DMSO, methanol, dichloromethane), may be autoclaved clean and can be repeatedly freeze-thawed without loss of product performance.
