Microbiology, cell culture, blood analyses, tissue samples, PCR, in vitro diagnostics, cultivation, storage, sample collection, biochemistry and much more – the requirements our products must comply with are as diverse as their fields of application. Depending on the application, they must withstand a range of stress factors, ensure an excellent purity, have a high transparency or be resistant to a multitude of chemicals.
To select the material optimally suited for your application, you can now download a list of resistances against frequently used chemicals as well as a table with information on the properties of the various plastics we are using to manufacture our products.
Our four certified purity levels, PCR Performance Tested, Biosphere® plus, TC Tested, and Cryo Performance Tested, are especially suited for analysis of nucleic acids, highly sensitive testing, cell culture applications and cryopreservation of cell and tissue culture specimens. For an overview as to which parameters can be certified with which threshold values you can download the respective certificates here.
In order to preserve the quality of samples, reagents and other substances, these must frequently be stored at low temperatures. Especially in the sub-zero temperature range, plastic vessels are exposed to severe strain. Please see our new flyer “Freezing Sarstedt Tubes“ for a range of information as to which tubes and storage conditions are ideal for your application.
