ABSTRACT:
A container suitable for high speed centrifugation is provided with a cap carrying a microbe-impermeable filter means. The filter means permits gas flow into and out of the container but prevents microbes from entering the container. A method of making such a container is also described. A preferred embodiment is for a container that can be used as a microcentrifuge tube. A method of drying, e.g., lyophilizing, a biological sample using the container is also provided.
