2 mL Stainless Steel Microvials

2 mL Stainless Steel Microvials

SKU: HMV-100

2 mL Stainless Steel Microvials are type 305 stainless steel microvials with 1.8 mL capacity designed to be used for sample homogenization with Bead Mills. The microvials can be sealed with either polyethylene flange caps, silicone rubber stopper caps or crimped 13 mm OD septa caps.

 

Package size: 100 pieces

 

Applications include:

 

  • Dry grinding with steel beads in a high energy Bead mill cell disrupter: (e.g.,MiniBeadbeater) where milling forces can crack common plastic microvials - - an exception is our 2 ml polypropylene microvials.   They are the toughest 2 ml screw-top polypropylene vial on the market and can be used for most dry milling applications.
  • Improved PCR methods: Compared to plastic or glass vessels, stainless steel microvials provide superior temperature cycling capabilities.
  • Control of sample heating during the beadbeating process: Stainless steel microvials support faster sample cooling steps that are sometimes required to offset the sample heating that occurs during beadbeating.

 

NOTE: When beadbeating dry or hard frozen samples using steel beads specially shaped Silicone Rubber Stoppers for Steel Homogenization Vials (SKU: HMV-C-100) should be used to seal the stainless steel microvials. The flange caps, which come with microvials, can fail under these harsh bead milling conditions.
