The Puretest 0.1 mL low-profile 8-strip PCR tubes reduce the space between the sample and heated lid while keeping eight reactions aligned for efficient multichannel setup. Clear flat cap strips provide individual well closure for compatible low-profile PCR and qPCR blocks.

Eight low-profile conical reaction tubes are connected at standard row pitch. A separate flat eight-cap strip closes the tubes with uniform pressure. The reduced tube height decreases gas space above low-volume reactions and can reduce condensation on the sidewall when used with the correct heated lid.

Seat the cap strip from one end to the other while supporting the tube strip on a flat rack. For qPCR, keep the flat cap surfaces free from fingerprints and confirm optical clarity with the detector path.

Dimensions, volumes, cleanliness status and instrument compatibility are nominal unless confirmed in the current Puretest specification. Validate the tube, cap and thermal cycler together before routine use.
Designed for selected 0.1 mL low-profile thermal-cycler blocks. Some low-profile strips are also used in instruments described as 0.2 mL blocks, but tube height, cap clearance and heated-lid pressure must be confirmed rather than assumed.
| Application | Why This Format Is Suitable |
|---|---|
| Low-volume PCR | Reduced profile supports efficient cycling with limited reaction volume. |
| Real-time PCR | Clear flat caps can support compatible optical detection after validation. |
| Gene-expression analysis | Eight aligned reactions simplify row-based sample setup. |
| Genotyping | Multichannel-ready strips improve handling consistency. |
| Assay development | Low dead space supports optimization of low-volume reaction conditions. |
Puretest PCR tubes are molded from high-purity virgin polypropylene selected for chemical resistance, low biomolecule binding and consistent thermal transfer. Uniform thin walls help every reaction experience similar contact with the thermal block.
Molecular-biology cleanliness, nonpyrogenic status, sterility and packaging options must be tied to the quoted catalog number. Request confirmation of DNase, RNase, human DNA, PCR-inhibitor and pyrogen limits when these claims are required for a validated workflow.
Certificates of Analysis, Certificates of Conformance, lot traceability, dimensional reports and irradiation documentation can be discussed before purchase. Puretest does not treat every packaging configuration as having identical certification.
Puretest supports evaluation samples, current technical drawings, bulk and protected packaging, sterile and non-sterile options where available, customer catalog numbers, private labels, barcodes and distributor carton programs. MOQ, inner-pack quantity, case quantity, lead time and carton dimensions are confirmed with the final specification.
| Format | Structure | Best-Fit Workflow |
|---|---|---|
| 0.1 mL low-profile 8-strip | Eight connected low-profile tubes with clear flat caps | Low-volume PCR and compatible qPCR blocks |
| 0.2 mL individual tube | Single thin-wall tube with integral frosted flat cap | Flexible single-reaction setup and sample identification |
| 0.2 mL standard 8-strip | Eight connected standard-profile tubes with clear flat caps | Routine PCR in compatible 0.2 mL blocks |
Compatibility depends on the thermal-cycler block, tube profile, heated-lid pressure and cap geometry. Request samples and validate the exact instrument before routine use.
It reduces headspace and is well suited to low-volume reactions in compatible fast-cycling and qPCR blocks.
No. Check tube height, block geometry, cap clearance and the exact instrument model.
Clear flat caps may support optical detection, but confirm cap polish and the instrument’s read path.
White tube options can be discussed for qPCR workflows that benefit from increased fluorescence reflection.
