BD 427517 - Intramedic Tubing Precision Medical-Grade Tubing for Laboratory and Clinical Fluid Transfer

BD 427517 - Intramedic Tubing Precision Medical-Grade Tubing for Laboratory and Clinical Fluid Transfer

The BD 427517 Intramedic Tubing is a high-quality medical and laboratory tubing engineered for precise fluid transfer, sample handling, and general laboratory applications. Manufactured from durable, biocompatible materials, Intramedic tubing is known for its consistent internal diameter, smooth flow properties, and chemical resistance. It supports a wide range of procedures requiring accurate delivery or withdrawal of liquids, making it a dependable component in research, diagnostics, and clinical workflows.

Key Benefits

The BD 427517 Intramedic Tubing offers exceptional performance, flexibility, and reliability. Its uniform bore ensures predictable flow rates and minimizes sample retention or carryover. The tubing is resistant to kinking and compression, maintaining flow integrity even during extended use. It is made from high-grade polymers that exhibit excellent compatibility with common laboratory reagents, buffers, and aqueous solutions. The products durability, clarity, and dimensional precision provide consistent results and long-term stability in demanding laboratory environments.

Compatibility and Applications

BD Intramedic Tubing is compatible with a wide variety of laboratory instruments, syringes, pumps, and fluid-handling systems. It is commonly used in:

• Microbiology and chemistry laboratories for reagent transfer
• Clinical diagnostics for sample preparation and transport
• Pharmaceutical research and quality testing
• General laboratory use including vacuum lines, drainage, and perfusion systems

Its versatility makes it suitable for fluid aspiration, dispensing, low-pressure pumping, manifold systems, and specialized laboratory instrumentation requiring clear, dimensionally stable tubing.

Usage Guidelines

Select the appropriate length and diameter based on your laboratory application. Ensure that the tubing is securely attached to connectors, syringes, or pump fittings to maintain leak-free performance. Avoid exposure to incompatible solvents or temperatures beyond the materials specifications. Replace the tubing immediately if discoloration, stiffness, or cracking are observed. Store unused tubing in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain flexibility and clarity.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

The BD 427517 Intramedic Tubing is produced under ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certified manufacturing systems. It is designed in compliance with FDA and CE standards for medical and laboratory-grade components. Each production lot is tested for dimensional accuracy, tensile strength, chemical compatibility, and biocompatibility to ensure reliable performance in research and clinical environments.

Comparison with Competitor Products

Compared to generic laboratory tubing, BD Intramedic Tubing is distinguished by its superior clarity, dimensional precision, and chemical stability. Competitor tubing often varies in wall thickness or softness, leading to inconsistent flow and difficulty with fittings. BDs advanced polymer formulation provides improved resistance to collapse, better longevity, and dependable performance across a wide range of laboratory applications. This makes it a preferred option where accuracy, cleanliness, and reproducibility are essential.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios

The BD 427517 tubing is widely used by laboratory technicians, researchers, medical technologists, and quality-control personnel. Typical scenarios include reagent delivery, culture handling, analytical testing setups, perfusion, environmental sampling, and low-pressure drainage lines. Its consistent performance and adaptability make it suitable for both routine and specialized laboratory procedures.

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

Inspect tubing before each use to ensure it is free of contaminants or physical defects. Cut tubing cleanly using a sterile blade or tubing cutter to ensure proper connection to fittings. Avoid stretching or bending beyond recommended limits to maintain lumen integrity. Clean or sterilize tubing only according to the materials tolerance; some polymers may not withstand autoclaving or aggressive chemical sterilants. Replace tubing on a scheduled basis in high-use or critical applications to maintain accuracy and safety.

Regulatory and Safety Information

The BD 427517 Intramedic Tubing is intended for laboratory and medical use by trained personnel. It is latex-free and designed to minimize risks of reactivity or contamination. Follow appropriate laboratory safety protocols when transferring biological or chemical materials through the tubing. Dispose of used tubing according to institutional, environmental, and biohazard waste regulations when contaminated with infectious or hazardous substances.
