Features

Our leakproof freestanding sample collection and transport tubes with screw caps feature graduations at 1mL increments and a large frosted writing surface for convenient labeling and identification. Each tube is molded from durable polypropylene, has a conical bottom, and a wide skirted base. Our exclusive elastomeric sealing caps are included and are autoclavable. Tubes are lab tested and certified to the IATA 95kPA standard for safe air shipping of samples and the DOT 95kPa standard for ground shipment of biological samples.

All international and domestic carriers now require adherence to the IATA 95kPa standard for all biological substance shipments. IATA 95 kPa certification ensures containers are leak-resistant under differential pressure conditions such as in air transport. This certification requires containers to prove capable of withstanding, without leakage, an internal pressure producing a pressure differential of not less than 95 kPa (0.95 bar, 13.8 psi).

SuperClear® transport and collection tubes are the ideal vessel for primary biological sample collection and containment. They can be used for any biological sample including fluids. These leak-resistant secure seal sample tubes provide a durable protective barrier against exposure, safeguarding the sample inside from costly damage.

In the U.S. and other countries that apply the UN3373 standard for transport of biological samples SuperClear® tubes meet this standard as the primary container for air and ground shipment using the 95kPA certification.

SuperClear® transport and collection tubes are available in a 10mL size or a 5mL size. They come in bags with caps and tubes separate or in sterile packages. And like all our sterile products we only use medical grade packaging and sterilize following a validated ISO 11137 method.
