Globe Scientific Transport Tube, Sterile, Round Bottom, Self-Standing

The 10 mL Sterile Self-Standing Transport Tubes are high-quality sample collection and transport containers designed for clinical, diagnostic, and research applications, particularly for nasal and nasopharyngeal specimen collection. Manufactured from medical-grade polypropylene, these tubes are DNase-free, RNase-free, and non-pyrogenic, ensuring optimal preservation of sensitive biological samples.

Each tube is supplied sterile and features a self-standing design, allowing stable handling on laboratory benches and reducing the risk of spills during sample processing. The tubes are paired with sterile, leak-resistant HDPE caps that include an internal recess specifically designed to securely hold the swab shaft, improving user safety and convenience during specimen collection.

Sterilized by irradiation and rigorously leak-tested up to 70 kPa, these transport tubes are suitable for a wide range of molecular and microbiological workflows, including sample transport prior to downstream diagnostic testing.
