Screw Cap Tube 5.0 ml Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Screw Cap Tube 5.0 ml (Product Code: SLE/CL/42) is a small polypropylene test tube with a screw cap and a capacity of 5.0ml, used in hospital laboratories and reference centres for multiple tests. Its size suits jobs where only a few millilitres need to be held securely, such as keeping separated serum or plasma, storing reagent portions or passing a specimen from one bench to another. This tube is one of the items of disposable lab equipment in India supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

A common use is aliquoting: after a blood sample has been centrifuged, the serum or plasma is pipetted into one or more small screw-cap tubes so that different sections of the laboratory can work from their own portion, or so a portion can be kept back for repeat testing. The threaded cap closes more securely than a push-on stopper, which reduces the chance of leaks when tubes are carried in racks or boxes.

Polypropylene is a tough, slightly flexible plastic that resists many aqueous solutions and alcohols, making it practical for general bench work. Write the sample identity on a label before filling, tighten the cap fully and store tubes upright. Laboratories that source from a lab plastic ware supplier in India often keep this size next to larger conical tubes so both aliquoting and centrifugation needs are covered.
