A Test Tube Brush

Answer:

You can use a brush that is used to clean the hole in automatic coffee makers OR, if I need to clean out something similar, I just roll up a napkin or paper towel so it fits snugly (not tight) into the tube and twist it a few times. You may have to do it a couple of time but paper towels and napkins are pretty handy.

A metal pipe cleaner can be used to clean a test tube. If you are refering to cleaning a test tube with residue on the inside, various organic solvents can be used based on the solution. If you are refering to preparing a test tube for blood samples, heparin is used to inhibit coagulation.

To clean a test tube use isopropyl alcohol and a test tube brush. Then wash with hot soapy water and rinse with hot water. Allow the test tubes to air dry.
