TPP 50ml TubeSpin
TPP TubeSpins are ideal for the high throughput screening and optimization of suspension cell system process development. Each TubeSpin resembles a standard 50ml conical tube, and the cap has a built-in 0.22µm hydrophobic membrane to maintain sterility and facilitate gas exchange. Process development and media optimization can be finely controlled by means of five cap holes of differing size that can be selectively sealed to achieve maximum cell yield and output.
The simple 50ml tube design contains no internal mixing or stirring mechanism which minimizes cell shearing and foam formation, and agitation is provided by shaking in a CO2 shaking incubator. In this manner, hundreds of cell cultivations can be performed quickly and efficiently in parallel

Bacterial and Microbiological Cultures
TPP TubeSpins are ideally suited for the culture of bacteria, yeast, and other microbiological organisms in suspension. The simple, disposable format offers convenience and time-savings over traditional glass vessels such as test tubes which must be washed and autoclaved before each use. Both aerobic and anaerobic cultures can be grown by selectively covering the holes in the 0.22um filter cap. 10-35ml of culture can be grown in each TubeSpin, offering the flexibility to perform mini plasmid preps, small-scale candidate screens, or other downstream applications.
Ideal for Suspension
- Less incubator or hood space needed; when compared to a T75
- Less plastic usage and less plastic waste
- Great gas exchange throughout the culture
- No transfer stage – Spin down in the same tube
- Easier withdrawal from tube than a flask
The TPP TubeSpins are perfect for cell suspension. The cap is designed with 5 holes and a 0.22µm hydrophobic membrane. This allows for ideal gas exchange throughout your culture, and if needed, controlled gas exchange by covering the holes. By using the same vessel throughout each pass, less cells will be damaged or lost during a transfer.
