[Histonet] microtubes for aliquoting antibodies

[Jonathan Wilson]

Hello,
I was wondering if there was anyone out there that could recommend a source
(preferably in Europe) for plastic microtubes for aliquoting antibody sera
(10-100ul) for storing in the freezer (to avoid freeze-thaw). I have
recently been using PE beckman type tubes (0.4ml, 4 cm long) but I find them
a bit bulky and the lids done seal so great. In the past (when I was a
student in Canada), I was using shorter PP tubes with a maximum volume of
100-200 ul. I found that these softer tubes had better sealing lids. For
aliquoting sera in such small volumes they were vastly superior to regular
eppendorf type bullet tubes.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Sincerely,
Jonathan
