| Product Name | Centrifuge Tubes, 15 mL, Sterile, Conical Bottom |
| Catalog No. | IGM-HMM-0052 |
| Description | Sterile 15 mL polypropylene centrifuge tubes with conical bottom design for efficient pellet formation and recovery. Printed graduations and large white writing area for clear sample identification. Gamma sterilized and individually quality tested. |
| Intended Use | Centrifugation of cell suspensions, protein precipitates, bacterial cultures, and biological fluids; sample storage, reagent preparation, and general laboratory liquid handling at milliliter scale. |
| Principle / Technology | Conical bottom (approximately 30 degree included angle) concentrates pellets in narrow tip for easy recovery. Screw cap with O-ring provides leak-proof seal at centrifugation speeds. Polypropylene construction provides clarity for sample visualization and broad chemical resistance. |
| Detection Method | Centrifuge integrity at maximum rated RCF; sterility per ISO 11137; graduations accuracy by gravimetric fill; cap leak test |
| Sample Type | Mammalian cell suspensions, bacterial cultures, tissue homogenates, urine samples, serum, plasma, chemical precipitates, nucleic acid precipitation |
| Performance Range / Specifications | Graduated volume 1-15 mL at 0.5 mL intervals; max RCF 8,400 x g (polypropylene); operating temperature -80 C to 121 C; fill accuracy of graduations +/- 2% |
| Sensitivity / LOD | Endotoxin <0.1 EU/tube; cytotoxicity negative (USP <87>); nuclease non-detectable |
| Specificity | No extractable DNA/RNA; heavy metals <1 ppm; leachable organics below detection by HPLC-UV |
| Reaction Conditions / Protocol | Fill tube to desired volume; cap securely; balance with tube of equal weight; centrifuge at appropriate speed and time; pellet may be resuspended after decanting supernatant. |
| Components / Formulation | Medical-grade polypropylene tube, high-density polyethylene screw cap with integrated sealing ring, printed graduations using non-toxic ink |
| Storage Conditions | 15-30 C; store upright; avoid prolonged exposure to UV light |
| Shelf Life | 60 months from sterilization date |
| Package Specifications | 25 tubes per sterile rack, 500 tubes per case; bulk 500 sterile tubes in resealable bag |
| Product Form | 15 mL conical centrifuge tube, sterile, individually or bulk packaged, with screw cap |
| Quality Control | Centrifugation integrity testing per lot; sterility per tube batch; graduation accuracy verification; cap seal at maximum RCF; bioburden and endotoxin release testing |
| Key Features | Sterile conical design; large writing patch; printed graduations; screw cap with leak-proof seal; DNase/RNase-free; max 8,400 x g |
| Purity | Sterile (SAL 10^-6); certified DNase/RNase-free; non-cytotoxic (USP <87>); non-pyrogenic; endotoxin tested |
| Concentration | N/A |
| Activity / Unit Definition | N/A |
| Molecular Weight | N/A |
| Source / Origin | USP Class VI polypropylene; high-density polyethylene for cap; manufactured under ISO 13485; gamma sterilized |
| pH Range / Optimal pH | Polypropylene chemically resistant pH 1-14; tube can be used with most aqueous solutions, alcohols, weak acids and bases |
| Shipping Conditions | Ambient temperature; tube racks secured in corrugated shipping cartons; protect from impact |
| Expiration Date / Stability | 5 years from sterilization; sterility guaranteed while packaging remains intact and undamaged |
| Regulatory / Compliance | ISO 13485:2016; ISO 11137 sterilization; CE marked; USP <661> and <87> compliant; FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 |
| Compatibility | Fits standard 15 mL centrifuge rotors (swinging bucket and fixed angle); compatible with most benchtop centrifuges; tube racks, tube rotators, and sample storage systems |
| Recommended Buffer System | Compatible with PBS, Tris, HEPES, and all standard buffers; resistant to ethanol (70-100%), isopropanol, acetone, and moderate acid/base solutions |
| Application Notes / Precautions | Do not exceed maximum RCF rating; ensure tube is properly balanced before centrifugation; for -80 C storage, allow tube to warm slightly before centrifugation to prevent brittle failure; avoid direct marking on tube body near graduation lines for accurate readings |
| Batch-to-Batch Consistency | Tube weight +/- 0.3 g per 12-cavity mold; centrifugation qualification at max RCF per production batch; cap removal torque within specification range of 1.5-3.0 N-m |
