These sterile PCR tubes come with a leakage-proof snap-cap. It allows you to prevent evaporation during the reaction, ensuring accurate results. Made of virgin polypropylene, following types of PCR strip tubes.
What Are PCR Tubes?
PCR tubes are small tubes made of high-quality virgin polypropylene with a conical bottom and snap-cap lead. They have uniform thin walls to facilitate efficient heat transfer to the sample. These tubes are sterile and work well with most thermal cyclers.
What Are the Applications of PCR Tubes?
The most common application of PCR tubes includes various molecular biology biochemistry experiments requiring real-time PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). As these tubes have ultra-thin walls, they are perfect for accurate and steady thermal transfer in an array of thermocyclers. Our thin-wall PCR tubes meet the protocols required for PCR, qPCR, reverse transcriptions, and a variety of other applications.

FAQs
What are PCR tubes, and why are they essential?
PCR tubes are small, thin-walled vessels made of polypropylene, specifically designed for Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) experiments. They withstand rapid temperature changes, minimize evaporation, and ensure consistent thermal conductivity, which is crucial for accurate DNA amplification.
What sizes do MaxBiochem PCR tubes come in?
Our PCR tubes are available in 0.2 mL, 0.5 mL, and 1.5 mL sizes, catering to various sample volumes and experimental needs. The 0.2 mL size is the most commonly used and is compatible with most thermal cyclers.
What materials are used in MaxBiochem PCR tubes?
Our PCR tubes are made from high-quality virgin polypropylene, ensuring durability, resistance to chemicals, and the ability to withstand the thermal cycling process without deformation.
Are Max Biochem PCR tubes compatible with all thermal cyclers?
Yes, our PCR tubes are designed to be compatible with a wide range of thermal cyclers. We recommend verifying compatibility with your specific model to ensure optimal performance.
What cap types are available, and how do they differ?
We offer both domed and flat cap options. Domed caps are ideal for standard PCR applications, while flat caps are preferred for quantitative PCR (qPCR) due to their optical clarity, which enhances fluorescence detection.
Are MaxBiochem PCR tubes RNase/DNase-free?
Yes, our PCR tubes are certified free from RNase, DNase, and other contaminants, ensuring the integrity of your samples and preventing degradation during the amplification process.
What sealing options are available for PCR tubes?
We provide a variety of sealing options, including adhesive films, aluminum foils, and strip caps. Each option is designed to prevent evaporation and cross-contamination, with specific choices tailored for standard PCR or qPCR applications.
What are the benefits of using MaxBiochem PCR tubes?
- Enhanced thermal performance for consistent amplification results
- Reduced evaporation with secure sealing options
- Certified purity free from RNase, DNase, and PCR inhibitors
- Compatibility with a wide range of thermal cyclers and applications
