IVD Items

Sample Storage: Falcon tubes are commonly used to store biological samples such as blood, serum, plasma, urine, and other bodily fluids. Their secure, leak-proof caps ensure sample integrity.

Centrifugation: These tubes are designed to withstand high centrifugal forces, making them ideal for separating components in a mixture, such as cells from blood or protein precipitates from a solution.

Cell Culture: Falcon tubes can be used for culturing and maintaining small volumes of cell suspensions. They provide a sterile environment suitable for various cell culture applications.

Reagent Preparation: They are often used to prepare and mix reagents, solutions, and buffers. The graduated markings on the tube aid in accurate measurement of volumes.

Sample Mixing: Due to their conical bottom design, Falcon tubes are excellent for vortexing and mixing samples thoroughly, ensuring homogeneity.

Storage and Transport: The durable plastic material and secure cap design make Falcon tubes suitable for safely storing and transporting samples between locations, even under varying temperature conditions.

PCR and Molecular Biology: Falcon tubes are used in the preparation and storage of samples for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and other molecular biology techniques. They are compatible with various extraction and amplification protocols.

Cryogenic Storage: Some Falcon tubes are designed to withstand ultra-low temperatures, making them suitable for freezing and long-term storage of biological samples in cryogenic conditions.

Chemical Reactions: These tubes can be used to conduct small-scale chemical reactions, especially when the reaction requires precise measurement and containment of volatile or hazardous substances.
