PCR tubes are laboratory staples that are critical to the success of an experiment. Applied Biosystems MicroAmp tubes, MicroAmp 8-Tube Strips, and MicroAmp Cap Strips are designed for precision and accuracy in PCR and qPCR experiments.
MicroAmp tubes
These single tubes are suitable for small scale experiments (1–3 reactions). Some of our popular MicroAmp PCR tubes are listed in Table 1.

Benefits of MicroAmp 8-tube strips for PCR
Applied Biosystems MicroAmp 8-Tube Strip with attached optical or domed caps offers a combination of features to help prevent cross-contamination, pipetting errors, and sample identification errors.
- Attached caps that open and close independently
- Etched labeling (A–H) on individual tubes (visible when cap is open and closed)
- Dual side tabs for labeling
- Graduated 20 μL markers on each tube
- Available with domed or flat caps for PCR and optically clear for qPCR
