General Product Information

The Eppendorf Tube – Simple and Safe Sample Preparation with the “Eppi” Tube

The Eppendorf tube is the microcentrifuge tube gold standard in labs that handle small volumes of liquids. In life science and biological labs, a microcentrifuge tube is used for all sorts of applications from sample storage to running reactions and spinning down or separating samples. Whatever experiments you are conducting, if you work with small volumes of 5 mL or less you will likely need microcentrifuge tubes in your lab. Synonymous with the Microcentrifuge Tube, the Eppendorf Microcentrifuge Tube (Eppendorf Tube), has built a name for itself in the scientific community with their superb quality and commitment to excellence. Check out our Eppendorf tube selection and special offers and promotions below.

The Eppendorf tube is the result of over 50 years of improvement and development. In 1963 a series of innovative consumable products were produced by Eppendorf to meet all common laboratory procedure needs. This series gave us the legendary "Eppi". Since then, Eppendorf has continuously improved workflows and experimental results through their innovative Eppendorf Tube. Eppendorf tubes with unique features make everyday routines and protocols faster, easier, and more reliable. Eppendorf avoids the use of any slip agents, plasticizers, and biocides – substances that have been shown to leach from plastic consumables into the sample and negatively affect bio-assay results – during manufacturing to reduce the risk of chemical leaching into samples. The availability of different plastic grades and types is tailored to various requirements in laboratories. The Eppendorf tube provides secure and outstanding stability during centrifugation, protects against evaporation, and provides a perfect sealing.

Eppendorf consumables have different purity levels including Eppendorf Quality, PCR clean, Eppendorf Biopur, PCR clean, sterile and pyrogen-free, sterile, and protein-free. Eppendorf Quality is the basis of all Eppendorf consumables and it requires continuous control to monitor form, appearance, and dimensions. PCR Clean is achieved under clean-room conditions and these tubes are tested by an independent lab to be free of human DNases and RNases. Eppendorf Biopur is the highest purity grade. Products under this criterion are guaranteed to be sterile and free of RNases, DNases, pyrogens, human & bacteria DNA and ATP inhibitors. Lot-specific certificates are provided.

The Eppendorf tube is available in a variety of designs and with a selection of features to meet specific laboratory requirements. They vary in terms of volume, tube wall adsorption level, packaging style, and quantity, etc.
