The Advanced Oak Ridge (AOR) system by HeroLab is an excellent choice for preparative centrifugation applications including protein purification, cell harvesting, pelleting applications, sterile centrifugation, extractions, density gradients and biohazardous application. The polypropylene sealing cap's of the Advanced Oak Ridge tubes has three self-seal pressure rings. They push against the inside of the tube neck, forming a triple contact seal which adds to the normal screw cap. The cap is constructed to support the Advanced Oak Ridge tube's shoulder and neck during centrifugation.
