Eppendorf Safe-Lock Tubes BioBased 1.5 mL 30123085

The Eppendorf Safe-Lock Tubes BioBased 1.5 mL (part no. 30123085) are microcentrifuge tubes made from 100% bio-based polypropylene designed for secure sample storage and centrifugation in molecular biology and life science labs.

Key Features:

• Volume: 1.5 mL
• Material: Bio-based polypropylene derived from 2nd generation feedstock (e.g., recycled cooking oil), ensuring identical material properties to conventional polypropylene
• Closure Type: Hinged Safe-Lock lid that prevents inadvertent opening
• Temperature Range: -86 °C to +100 °C
• Autoclavable when open at 121 °C for 20 minutes
• Centrifugation stability up to 30,000 x g
• Purity Grade: Available in PCR clean and Eppendorf Quality grades
• Color: Colorless/clear
• Bottom Shape: Conical
• Packaging: Resealable bags (typically 2 bags x 500 tubes per pack, total 1000 tubes)

Advantages:

• Hinged Safe-Lock lid minimizes risk of sample loss or contamination during storage and incubation
• Wide temperature tolerance from -86 °C to +100 °C allows for flexible use including cryogenic storage and heating protocols
• High centrifugation resistance (up to 30,000 x g) ensures tube integrity during high-speed centrifugation
• Bio-based polypropylene supports sustainability goals without compromising chemical resistance or mechanical performance
• Conical bottom facilitates efficient pellet formation and complete sample recovery
• PCR clean grade minimizes contamination risk for sensitive molecular biology assays
