Fun fact: DNA sticks to plastic really easily, so it is common practice to put “carrier DNA” in biotech products that are only DNA. This carrier DNA is at a much higher concentration than your DNA of interest and fills up the plastic so the DNA we care about doesn’t. Salmon sperm extract is a common carrier DNA.

Fun fact: no it does not. It sticks to glass well, but it only slightly adheres to polypropylene after spinning over 10,000g of force.
it literally does, and here’s data from Promega testing a eppendorf lo-bind tubes to oxygen tubes. https://worldwide.promega.com/-/media/files/resources/conference-proceedings/ishi-23/poster-abstracts/53-poster.pdf?rev=62368fd4fbb44e95a6d760af2b0cfa5d
