Tissue Culture Tube

TPP tissue culture tubes are an extension to the tissue culture flask product range.

The features of the unique tissue culture flat tube 10

Multifunctional: cultivation, incubation, examination under microscopy, centrifugation...
concial shape of the tube eases the removal of the pellet
10 cm² surface activated growth area with new surface quality resulting in crystal clear transparency
large opening for complete access of pipettes and scrappers
great clarity for visual control with inverse microscopes
sloped and flattened upper side results in reduced refraction
centrifugation in a 50 ml standard adapter at 1200 g
segmental packaging of 4 protects the individual tubes of scratches during transportation and handling
bag slits with laser perforation for easy opening mechanism

The corresponding TPP tissue culture rack fits 8 x tubes in a horizontal position for storage in a CO² incubator.

Features of the tissue culture tube 20:

20 cm² surface activated growth area
growth area over a length of 50 mm
volume graduations up to the tip
specially formed 10-sided comb from «VENT» screw cap with “Click” avoids inadvertent rolling and enables regaining previous positions
a click to the lock position and the «VENT» screw cap is in the aeration position, which guarantees constant air flow even when the tube is in vertical position.
fits a 15 ml standard tube adapter, can be spun up to 1'200 g
convenient re-closable zipper bag with laser perforation

Good to know!

Centrifugation

The tissue culture tubes may be employed up to a maximum centrifugal force of 1'200 gx. A suitable centrifuge-adapter is necessary.

Storage in incubator

The special TPP rack fits up to 8 x tissue culture flat tubes to be stored in save and secure horizontal position in a CO² incubator.
