Thermo Scientific™ Vacuum Hydrolysis Tube, 18 mL

Thermo Scientific™ Vacuum Hydrolysis Tube, 18 mL

Thermo Scientific Pierce Vacuum Hydrolysis Tube, 18 mL is a high-quality glass tube designed for heated, acid-based, vacuum hydrolysis of proteins and peptides for amino acid analysis.

Vacuum Hydrolysis Tubes are precision-designed for use in protein hydrolysis and subsequent analysis of protein and peptide amino acid compositions. The heavy-walled borosilicate glass construction ensures complete compatibility with all commonly used acid hydrolysis reagents. Acid hydrolysis at elevated temperatures, in vacuo, will hydrolyze most proteins and peptides to their amino acid components without significant decomposition.

Features

• Saves 10-18 hours on hydrolysis procedures when combined with 6N HCl (Part No. 24308)
• Provides for hydrolysis in 6 hours when heated at 150°C in a dry block heater (Note: the upper temperature limit of Vacuum Hydrolysis Tubes is 260°C in a block heater but only 110°C in an oven)
• Optimal hydrolysis control when used with Reacti-Therm Dry Block Heating System
• Compatible-fitting are available for use with Thermo Scientific Reacti-Therm Heating Modules
