With this recently developed Eppendorf tube type, for the first time Eppendorf offers problem-free handling with the tiniest volumes / concentrations of a variety of proteins.
Whereas previously, preliminary handling of tubes by saturation with BSA or siliconization was required in order to guarantee the recovery of the proteins in the plastic tube, the new protein LoBind Tube from Eppendorf offer real advantages. Recovery rates of more than 99% are now achievable . Enzyme-activities, for example, are not reduced by this tube, and denaturing effects caused by interaction with the surface are almost completely excluded. All of these properties are possible without the undesired side-effects of a surface coating.

• Minimum protein loss (less than 3%, BSA 1 µg/ml)
• Free of surface coating, e.g. silicone
• Free of DNA, DNase, RNase and PCR inhibitors (PCR clean)
• Special polypropylene type manufactured under optimization processing conditions
• Available as 0.5 ml, 1.5 ml and 2.0 ml Safe-Lock tubes
• High degree of centrifugations durability
• High degree of transparency
