Description

MEDILAB RIA Vials are high-quality, precision-moulded tubes designed for Radioimmunoassay (RIA), coagulation studies, bacteriology, and other diagnostic laboratory applications. These vials offer excellent clarity, chemical stability, and high-speed centrifugation tolerance, ensuring accurate and contamination-free sample handling. Their reliability makes them essential for sensitive assays involving hormones, proteins, and trace-level analytes.

Key Features

• Crystal-clear transparency for easy sample visualization
• Withstands up to 3000 RCF (PP) and 1400 RCF (PS) during centrifugation
• Resistant to common acids, alkalis, and solvents (depending on material)
• Tight-fitting screw caps prevent leakage, evaporation, and contamination
• Smooth internal surface ensures complete sample recovery
• Dimensionally stable and suitable for routine clinical and research workflows
• Lightweight, shatter-resistant, and compatible with most laboratory racks and systems

 Material Specifications

• Material Options:

Polypropylene (PP):

• Excellent chemical resistance to acids, alkalis & solvents
• Withstands higher centrifugation speeds
• Suitable for room-temperature biological assays

Polystyrene (PS):

• High optical clarity
• Suitable for mild reagents, weak acids, and bases
• Not suitable for aggressive organic solvents

Thermal Properties:

• PP: Withstands moderate heat; autoclavable depending on laboratory protocols
• PS: Not autoclavable; recommended for single-use workflows

Standards: Manufactured in accordance with global laboratory plasticware standards (ISO / DIN compliance where applicable)

 Technical Specifications

• Capacities: As per the standard size table
• Design: Round-bottom tube with precision-moulded threading
• Tolerance: Uniform wall thickness for consistent assay performance
• Packaging: Clean, particle-free packing; sealed in bulk laboratory-grade cartons
• Accessories: Screw caps available separately or included as per product selection

 Handling & Precautions

• Ensure caps are securely tightened to prevent evaporation or contamination
• PP vials may be centrifuged at higher speeds; PS vials must only be used within recommended limits
• Avoid exposing PS vials to aggressive solvents or high temperatures
• Clean PP vials with mild detergents; avoid abrasive cleaning materials
• For sensitive assays, use sterile or pre-cleaned vials as required
• Follow proper storage conditions to maintain sample integrity (avoid prolonged UV exposure)

 Applications

• Radioimmunoassay (RIA) and ELISA workflows
• Coagulation studies and hematology procedures
• Clinical diagnostics and hormone profiling
• Academic and industrial research laboratories
• Pharmaceutical QC/QA analysis
• Microbiological and biochemical assays
• Ideal for small-volume biological sample handling (hormones, proteins, metabolites)
