Quick-Seal Tube 342413: Medical Performance in Ultra-High-Speed Centrifugation
The Beckman Coulter model 342413 is a polyallomer Quick-Seal tube designed specifically for medical environments requiring very high-precision separations. With a capacity of 13.5 millilitres, it is perfectly sized (16 x 76 mm) for use in fixed-angle rotors such as the Type 90 Ti and Type 70.1 Ti, which allow centrifugation up to 90,000 rpm, reaching a maximum centrifugal force of 694,000 g.
The Quick-Seal format allows for hermetic sealing by heating, eliminating the risk of contamination or leakage. This type of tube is particularly useful in clinical and research applications where sample safety is paramount, such as plasmid analysis, macromolecular complex separation or density gradient preparation.
The 342413 is recommended for use with specific Quick-Seal tube sealing and handling tools, ensuring safe handling and compliance with biosafety protocols.
This tube is also recognised for its dimensional and chemical stability under extreme centrifugal force, making it a preferred choice for hospital facilities, biomedical research centres, and biotechnology laboratories handling small critical volumes.
