Glass test tube, also known as culture tube and sample tube, is a common and widely used glassware, which has a finger-like length, open top and closed bottom. It can be made of soda-lime material, borosilicate glass or quartz glass. And borosilicate glass and quartz glass test tube can withstand high temperatures up to several hundred celsuis.

Autoclaves are also known as steam sterilizers and are typically used for healthcare or industrial applications. An autoclave is a machine that uses steam under pressure to kill harmful bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores on items that are placed inside a pressure vessel. The items are heated to an appropriate sterilization temperature for a given amount of time. The moisture in the steam efficiently transfers heat to the items to destroy the protein structure of the bacteria and spores.

The costs of an autoclave can vary greatly because of the various uses and applications of this technology. Industrial and pharmaceutical autoclaves are customized and manufactured for a specific use and therefore costs are likely to differ compared to autoclaves you find in a hospital or dental office.
