FAQs
Are these PCR tubes compatible with all thermal cyclers?
Yes, these autoclavable PCR tubes with hinges are designed to fit standard thermal cycler blocks. Their thin-walled construction ensures optimal heat transfer for consistent results across different PCR machines.
Can I reuse these tubes after autoclaving?
Absolutely. The high-quality polypropylene material maintains its structural integrity through multiple autoclave cycles. However, we recommend inspecting tubes before each use and discarding any showing signs of wear.
What’s the maximum volume these tubes can hold?
While the exact capacity depends on the specific model, most hinged PCR tubes comfortably accommodate 200-250 µL volumes, with clear graduation marks for easy measurement.
Do these tubes come sterile?
The tubes are manufactured under clean conditions and are DNase/RNase-free. For additional sterility assurance, you can autoclave them before use as per your lab’s protocols.
How do I choose between hinged and regular snap-cap PCR tubes?
Hinged tubes offer better contamination control as the cap remains attached. They’re ideal for high-throughput labs or when working with hazardous materials. Snap-cap tubes may be preferred for single-use applications where cost is a primary concern.
