Choosing the correct tube

Confirm which range is intended for your milk, cream or other dairy sample. Do not assume all ranges use the same sample quantity or procedure. Verify the supplied tube's scale divisions, capacity, dimensions and required stopper with the supplier.

Equipment compatibility

Check compatibility with your butyrometer centrifuge, holders and testing accessories. Universal compatibility and calibration certification are not documented. Stoppers and other accessories are not specified as included.

Handling and care

Use only under an approved laboratory procedure with appropriate protective equipment and chemical-handling controls. Inspect the glass before use and follow the manufacturer's cleaning, heating and centrifugation instructions. Measurement performance depends on the tube specification and correct execution of the method.
