What is Eppendorf Tube?

Eppendorf tubes are microcentrifuge tubes (a.k.a. microfuge tubes) are small little cute plastic containers with conical bottoms with a cap on the top.  They are usually used for storage or centrifuge for small amount of liquid.   Many chemists and biologists used them in the lab.  These tubes are cold tolerance (as low as -80 °C to liquid nitrogen temperatures) or tolerant with organic solvents like chloroform.  They are called Eppendorf tubes because Eppendoft is a major manufacturer of microcentrifuge tubes.

Muntedkowhai store is now selling t-shirts featuring with Eppendoft tubes.

Above is a medium American Apparel pale blue tee shirt.  Honestly, that Eppendorf tube doesn’t look like tube to many people.  It looks more like a condom with an attached cap on top.

This is mustard Yellow t-shirt in small size.

This is another small t-shirt printed in pink.
