Description
General description
Introducing Eppendorf® BioBased Safe-Lock microcentrifuge tubes, a cutting-edge solution designed for scientists committed to sustainability without compromising performance. Crafted from 100% bio-based materials, these tubes help reduce the carbon footprint associated with laboratory consumables, while retaining the same material properties and technical specifications as Eppendorf non-BioBased variants.
Key features include a hinged Eppendorf® Safe-Lock lid that prevents accidental openings during incubation and storage, ensuring the security of your samples. With our advanced g-Safe® technology, these tubes provide exceptional centrifugation stability of up to 30,000 × g, effectively preventing sample loss due to tube breakage and enhancing safety when working with hazardous substances.
The tubes are manufactured without slip agents, plasticizers, or biocides, eliminating the risk of leaching harmful substances that could impact bio-assay results. The robust Bio-based Polypropylene construction offers excellent resistance to chemicals, mechanical stress, and extreme temperatures, making these tubes reliable under various experimental conditions. Additionally, precision sealing minimizes evaporation rates during long-term storage, and the generously sized lid and side surface facilitate easy labeling.
These tubes are functional within a temperature range of -86 °C to 100 °C and are autoclavable when open (121 °C for 20 minutes) to ensure reliable sterilization. Eppendorf® Safe-Lock BioBased microcentrifuge tubes are the perfect choice for scientists seeking to enhance their laboratory′s sustainability while maintaining the highest standards of performance.
Features and Benefits
BioBased (made of 100% bio-based material) variant aids in the reduction of consumable-related carbon footprint in the lab. The bio-based tubes have identical material properties and technical specifications as our non-BioBased tubes.
The hinged Eppendorf® Safe-Lock lid prevents inadvertent lid opening during incubation and storage.
g-Safe® technology, depending on the Safe-Lock Tube variant (refer to the manual), ensures outstanding centrifugation stability up to 30,000 × g, preventing sample loss due to tube breakage and providing additional safety when handling hazardous samples.
Manufactured without the use of slip agents, plasticizers, and biocides; substances demonstrated to leach from plastic consumables into the sample and adversely impact bio-assay results.
Bio-based Polypropylene construction offers robust resistance to chemicals, mechanical stress, and extreme temperatures.
Precision lid sealing minimizes evaporation rates during extended storage periods.
The generously sized frosted lid and side surface facilitate easy labelling.
Assured functionality in a temperature range from -86 °C C to 100 °C C.
Autoclavable when open (121 °C, 20 min) for reliable sterilization.
