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.

SuperClear™ Culture Tubes and Caps
- Ultra-clear resin
- Colored tubes available
- Medical grade (U.S.P.) packaging
- Thicker walls will not crush
These precision-molded, conical and round bottom tubes are perfect for a multitude of general laboratory uses. Precision crafted of extra clear virgin polypropylene in natural and colors or clear virgin polystyrene. Tube caps are made of low-density polyethylene for a secure seal and are available in a fluted plug style or dual position design that permits sample aspiration.
Polypropylene tubes are autoclavable to 122°C and freezable to -80°C. Polystyrene tubes are not autoclavable but have a nominal temperature range between 90°C and -40°C. Polyethylene caps are not autoclavable but are available pre-sterilized with many of the tube packages.
Polypropylene tubes can be centrifuged to 3000 RCF and polystyrene tubes will withstand 1500 RCF. (RCF; Relative Centrifugal Force, is not equivalent to RPM)
The assorted color polypropylene pestles come complete with 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tubes. These are packaged 10/box and 20 boxes per case.

Multi-Purpose Test Tubes 12 x 75 mm
Precision-molded from premium-grade plastics and ideal for routine laboratory analysis and procedures. We have applied the lessons learned from over 27 years of manufacturing experience to produce tubes that perform at their highest level. Our tubes are rigorously inspected by our Quality Assurance Department to ensure they surpass our exacting specifications. These tubes are ideal for a wide range of laboratory applications. They are available in several sizes, and from three materials, to meet a variety of needs.
- - All of the tubes are plastic (polystyrene, polypropylene or polypropylene-copolymer), thus preventing the problem of broken glass.
- - Polypropylene is chemically resistant, autoclavable and virtually unbreakable.
- - Polystyrene is clear like glass.
Note that caps are ordered separately. These tubes are not available sterile.

Laser Tough-Tags
Our label sheets are specially designed to permanently accept laser printing.Tough-Tags are chemically inert polyester labels that strongly adhere to all plastics and other materials. They are temperature resistant from 121°C to -40°C. These labels will withstand autoclaving, boiling water baths, freezer temperatures, organic solvents, caustic agents and other challenges without peeling, cracking or falling off. For best adhesion it is recommended that siliconized surfaces be avoided.
Tough-Tags are pre-cut, peel-off labels which accept any marking instrument and are perfectly sized to fit microcentrifuge tubes and other containers in the laboratory. Tubes with Tough-Tags wrapped around them will still slide easily in and out of rotors without binding because the labels are thin and the adhesive does not migrate from behind the label even after boiling and autoclaving.
Label Size: 0.94" x 0.50" (24mm x 13mm)
Ideal Use: 0.5mL tubes
Sheet Layout: 7 across - 17 down

Cryogenic Labels
Labeling frozen vials, microtubes, microplates, glass tubes, freezer boxes, plastic bags and other containers can be a challenge when storing in temperatures below 20 degrees Celsius.
We offer with a high-quality adhesive that can stick to already frozen vials and other objects. The adhesive on this type of label will adhere to a surface in wet and/or cold conditions. The adhesive on the label is specifically designed to stick in temperatures below 80 degree Celsius and as low as 196 degrees Celsius. When storing in deep freeze liquid nitrogen or vapor phase liquid nitrogen our Cryo labels will stay in place. MIDSCI's Cryo labels are resistant to smearing without any additional lamination. They also won't become brittle or cracked.
Our cryogenic labels are made of thermoplastic film and coated with a glove-friendly cryogenic adhesive. This special adhesive let the label to remain strong and sticky so that it can be securely attached to stainless steel, aluminum, paint, powder coated metal and iron.
Providing a high quality of the Cryo label is essential for laboratories,
researchers, (etc.). It will provide fewer errors, better accuracy, more
proficiency, and all of this leads to better results at a better budget.
