ActionsTest Tubes and Racks
From test tubes and racks to the labels and boxes you’ll use them with. MIDSCI has got your needs covered.
We also have freezer racks and autoclavable racks, stackable storage boxes and freezer boxes, general storage containers and cryogenic storage refrigerators and tanks.
And let’s not forget the labels! Wash-off labels, removable labels, and labels that will never come off (if you need that).
There are so many other quality choices and options for all of these products. MIDSCI has a wide assortment of test tubes, including top-notch centrifuge tubes your research depends on. We carry everything from sterile centrifuge tubes that we promise won’t buckle during spins to specialty centrifuge tubes that are completely blacked out to preserve your light sensitive compounds.

25 mL Centrifuge Tubes
- Fits most 50 mL rotors - Rim eliminates need for adapter
- Printed graduations - From 5mL to 2mL
- Compact low-profile design - Minimizes shipping, storage, and waste
- Gamma sterilized - RNase, DNase, & Pyrogen free
MTC Bio's 25 mL tube is the newest addition to our family of screw cap conical tubes. Closing the obvious gap between 15 mL and 50 mL tubes, they are ideal for any application that requires more than 15 mL and less than 50 mL, including midipreps, general sample prep, centrifugation, mixing and storage.
Aside from the reduction in freight costs, storage space and plastic waste, the 33% reduced height and large diameter design (which is identical to 50 mL tubes) allows for faster re-suspension of pellets and 100% recovery of small samples. Concerns about cross-contamination (a frequent result of accidental contact between the pipette and the inner wall of a 15 mL tube) are eliminated by the hood-friendly, low profile, wide diameter format.
Additionally, the tubes have a 360° support rim, just below the cap. Similar to 1.5 mL tubes, this rim allows the tube to fit into most racks, blocks, shields and rotors without requiring adapters. Made of high clarity polypropylene, MTC Bio 25mL conical tubes can withstand up to 17,000 xg maximum RCF* and are supplied sterile, certified RNase, DNase and pyrogen free and packed in racks or bags of 25 tubes with screw caps attached.
*Refers to liquids with a specific gravity of 1.0, using appropriate rotors, cushions and adapters.

15 mL PerformR® Polystyrene Centrifuge Tubes
- Centrifuging to 3,000 x G
- Attached flat screw caps
- Molded graduations
- Validated Sterilization (ISO 11137) for use in Research and Medical lab
- Not autoclavable or freezable
Polystyrene tubes are made of crystal clear resin and have bold etched graduations. They can be used for some culture applications that require a glass clear material. Cap includes a polyethylene liner.
Caps have a three-ply co-extruded liner consisting of a foamed White Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) core sandwhiched between two solid layers of Low-Density Polyethylene which contains High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) for improved stiffness. Not autoclavable or freezable.
All sterile package versions are sterilized with a validated and approved ISO 11137 method. Racked tubes are packaged in a sustainable cardboard rack that is easy to recycle.

SUPERCLEAR® 15 & 50 ML CENTRIFUGE TUBES
- Leak resistant flat camps with elastomeric molded-in sealing
- Patented, extra-large writing panel shows contents in tube clearly, labels easily, and is smear resistant for permanent coding
- Easy to read graduations and reverse scale for accurate measurements
- MAX FREEZE indicates the maximum volume for samples that will be frozen
- Thick, durable, medical grade resin withstands breakage and allows tubes to spin at g-forces up to 233% greater than other tubes
- SuperClear® tubes are recyclable, are offered in reusable/recyclable racks and feature recycling codes
CLARITY
Made from an ultra-clear non-cytotoxic medical grade resin
that allows you see sample volume and color easily. These tubes feature highly
visible printed graduations for easy filling and sample preparation.
DURABILITY
Engineered with thick, durable walls for ultra-high-speed
centrifugation. SuperClear® tubes consistently out-perform other brands.
RELIABILITY
Our patented, extra-large writing panel is the largest on
the market and transparent to easily view your sample through your label. This
writing panel is also smear-resistant for permanent coding and won’t wear off
when inserting and removing your tube from the centrifuge rotor.
SECURITY
Leak resistant SuperClear® 15 mL and 50 mL flat caps feature
a molded-in sealing ring that keeps your closed tubes completely secure. These caps are ideal for vortexing
chemicals and long rocker incubations.
SUSTAINABILITY

SuperSpin® microcentrifuge tubes were designed with the ability to extract DNA from samples and then amplify that DNA with reliable results in mind. They can be trusted to spin at high rates and can be opened and closed easily many times to add or remove agents. The interior surfaces are ultra-smooth with low retention. The tubes are clear enough to be use in spectrophotometers and have no extractables at the wavelength ranges you use to detect DNA. SuperSpin® microcentrifuge tubes are more than twice as effective at transmitting light than most brands of micro centrifuge tubes.
*Maximum G-force can be affected by organic solvents, multiple spin cycles, or low temperature storage.
