0.5 mL Sodium Heparin Polypropylene Blood Collection Tubes (10×45 mm) – NH100PP

Small-Volume Heparin Tubes with Superior Thermal & RCF Stability

The NH100PP tube is a 0.5 mL blood collection tube made from rugged polypropylene, treated with 8 I.U. of sodium heparin anticoagulant. With external dimensions 10×45 mm, it includes a white screw cap with O-ring seal to ensure tight sealing. This tube is designed to perform under demanding lab conditions, including extremes of temperature and high centrifugal forces.


Key Features

  • Volume: 0.5 mL — ideal for micro-samples, neonatal or paediatric draws, or where sample conservation is critical.

  • Anticoagulant: Sodium heparin (8 I.U.) — fast anticoagulant suitable for plasma-based assays where heparin is required.

  • Material: Polypropylene — resilient, with higher resistance to temperature extremes, chemical exposure, and mechanical stress than many plastics.

  • Dimensions: 10×45 mm external — compact size that fits many racks, centrifuge buckets, and small-scale instruments.

  • Cap & Seal: White screw cap with O-ring — provides secure, leak-resistant closure for transport or agitation.

  • Temperature Range: −40 °C up to +160 °C — supports freezing, heating, and harsh lab conditions without deforming or compromising seal.

  • Centrifugation Rating (RCF): Up to ~17,000 × g — capable of withstanding very high speed spins for advanced sample prep.


Why Choose NH100PP Tubes

  • Great for labs needing very small sample volumes while maintaining high performance and stability.

  • Polypropylene build and high RCF rating give flexibility for demanding centrifugation and sample processing.

  • Heparin anticoagulant makes this tube versatile for chemistry, plasma, or diagnostic assays that require heparin.

  • O-ring sealing cap helps ensure sample integrity during handling or transport.
