Centrifuge tubes are laboratory tools used to separate liquids of different densities through centrifugal force. These tubes are commonly used in medical, scientific, and industrial laboratories for a variety of applications, including cell culture, molecular biology, and biochemistry.
Centrifuge tubes come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 0.5 ml to 50 ml or more, and are typically made from plastic, such as polypropylene, or glass. Plastic centrifuge tubes are generally more durable and shatter-resistant than glass tubes, making them a popular choice in many laboratory settings.
Centrifuge tubes typically come with a snap-on cap or screw cap to prevent spillage and contamination. The caps are usually made from the same material as the tube and are designed to provide a tight seal to prevent leakage. Some centrifuge tubes also feature a flat top or a frosted writing area for labeling purposes.
Centrifuge tubes are used in a wide variety of laboratory applications. For example, they are commonly used in clinical laboratories to separate blood components, such as red blood cells and plasma, for diagnostic purposes. In molecular biology, centrifuge tubes are used to isolate DNA and RNA from biological samples, while in cell culture, they are used to harvest and store cells.
