BD 427450 - Intramedic Tubing Flexible Polyethylene Laboratory Tubing for Precision Micro-Flow Applications

BD 427450 - Intramedic Tubing Flexible Polyethylene Laboratory Tubing for Precision Micro-Flow Applications

The BD 427450 Intramedic Tubing is a high-quality polyethylene (PE) laboratory tubing designed for accurate micro-flow transfer, cannulation, perfusion, and small-animal research procedures. Manufactured with consistent internal and external diameters, this tubing ensures smooth fluid movement, reliable connections, and minimal resistance during scientific and experimental applications. Its flexible, lightweight, and biocompatible construction makes it a trusted choice for researchers and laboratory professionals requiring dependable micro-tubing.

Key Benefits

BD Intramedic tubing is engineered for exceptional dimensional precision and consistency, allowing researchers to maintain stable flow rates and achieve reproducible results. The polyethylene formulation provides excellent kink resistance, outstanding clarity, and chemical compatibility with a wide range of laboratory fluids. The smooth inner bore reduces sample retention and supports clean, efficient transfer during delicate procedures. Its durable, single-roll format supports convenient customization to meet experimental needs.

Compatibility and Applications

The BD 427450 tubing is compatible with a variety of micro-cannulas, perfusion systems, catheterization devices, and small-animal surgical instruments. It is widely used in:

• Physiology and pharmacology research
• Micro-infusion and perfusion studies
• Small-animal surgery and catheterization
• Fluid routing in instrumentation setups
• Custom laboratory assemblies requiring micro-scale tubing

Usage Guidelines

Cut the tubing to the desired length using a sterile, sharp blade to ensure clean edges and secure fitting. Confirm compatibility with connectors and cannulas before use. Avoid excessive stretching or bending that may alter the internal diameter. Store in a cool, dry environment to preserve tubing shape and clarity. If used in physiological studies, follow all institutional guidelines for animal care and experimental safety.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

BD Intramedic tubing is produced under ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certified quality management systems. The polyethylene formulation meets laboratory safety and performance standards for biocompatibility and chemical resistance. This product is intended for research and laboratory applications and complies with regulatory requirements for non-clinical use.

Comparison with Competitor Products

Compared with generic polyethylene tubing, BD Intramedic tubing provides tighter dimensional tolerances, superior clarity, and greater flexibility. Many competitor products may exhibit inconsistent wall thickness or lower chemical resistance, affecting flow rates and experiment reproducibility. BDs precise manufacturing ensures smoother flow characteristics and dependable performance in micro-scale applications.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios

The BD 427450 tubing is ideal for:

• Biomedical researchers performing perfusion and infusion studies
• Small-animal surgical teams requiring micro-tubing
• Laboratories customizing fluid delivery systems
• Technicians assembling instrumentation for controlled micro-flow
• Academic research groups conducting experimental physiology

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

Inspect tubing before use for signs of deformation or contamination. When sterilization is required, verify compatibilitypolyethylene should not be autoclaved. Chemical sterilants or low-heat methods may be used when appropriate. Maintain clean equipment and connectors to avoid introducing particulates. Replace tubing regularly for long-term experiments to maintain performance consistency.

Regulatory and Safety Information

This product is intended for laboratory and research use only and is not suitable for direct human clinical applications. Follow standard laboratory PPE guidelines when handling chemicals or biological samples. Dispose of used tubing in accordance with institutional laboratory waste procedures.
