Tubes
We offer thin-walled PCR reaction tubes in 0.2 mL & 0.5 mL volumes:
0.2 mL thin-walled micro reaction tubes with cap (1000/bag, Cat. No. T101)
0.5 mL thin-walled micro reaction tubes with cap (1000/bag, Cat. No. T102)
These tubes can be used for any application including Differential Display (DD). DD is particularly sensitive to variations in the type and thickness of reaction tubes. (Chen et al. BioTechniques. 1994. 16:1003-1006.). This may be one of the most common causes for the false positives in differential display analysis.
GenHunter polypropylene reaction tubes feature thin-walls to ensure uniform and efficient heat transfer during thermal cycling. This ensures the excellent reproducibility and sensitivity of differential display. The following tubes have been carefully tested and can be used successfully for differential display.
