Labcon has microcentrifuge tubes for all kinds of laboratory processing.
- SuperSpin™
- SuperClear™ Boilproof
- SuperClear™ Screw Cap
Your ability to extract DNA from many kinds of samples and then to amplify it with reliable results is an important part of your everyday lab work.
SuperSpin™ tubes where designed with this in mind. They can be trusted to spin at high rates. They can easily be opened and closed many times to add reagents. Their orienting cap makes it easy to get the cap on straight.
SuperSpin™ tubes have ultra-smooth polished interior surfaces that won't adhere to most proteins and are clear enough to be used in a spectrophotometer. Since these tubes use one of our pre-tested resins you don't have to worry about extractables in the resin that can interfere with your ability to detect DNA.
SuperSpin™ tubes have a 90 degree hinge that is much easier to close and open than most centrifuge tubes. This hinge paired with our unique plug design make the SuperSpin™ tube easy to open and close even though it seals better than most tubes.

SuperClear™ tubes are tubes you can use in your less demanding lab work for procedures that don't require the strength of SuperSpin™ tubes.
SuperClear™ tubes have many of the same features of SuperSpin™ tubes but they are designed to use far less plastic than other tubes.

SuperClear™ tubes use half as much plastic as most popular brands of tubes. This can save hundreds of pounds of plastic in a typical lab every year. Most tubes are made from low cost commodity grade resins or recycled plastics that have been reground and used again. They also often include a clarifying agent to improve their clarity. Those tubes need thick walls in order for their poor quality resin to be strong enough to centrifuge at 15,000 x G. SuperClear™ tubes are made from our special pure virgin resin that needs less material to be just as strong.

SuperClear™ Screw Cap Micro Centrifuge Tubes are made from an ultra clear resin that gives you an excellent view of tube contents. These tubes include universal screw threads that will work with all major brands of caps. Caps are available with a flat ethylene propylene or color codable silicone O-ring seal for secure storage. Also included is a smooth surface for applying labels. Caps and tubes are autoclavable and freezable. Sterile tubes are radiation sterilized. Tubes can be centrifuged to 20,000 RCF.
