Classification and characteristics of erlenmeyer shake flasks

 Erlenmeyer shake flasks are an important cell culture consumable. They are divided into triangular erlenmeyer shake flasks and high-efficiency erlenmeyer shake flasks according to their capacity and shape. Their characteristics are as follows:

Triangular erlenmeyer shake flask: The capacity of this cell shake flask is generally small, ranging from 125ml-1000ml. It is also called a conical shake flask. It is made of polycarbonate (PC) or PETG. It has a unique triangular shape design. The pipette or cell scraper can reach the corner of the bottle more easily, making the cell culture operation more convenient. It is mainly used for the cultivation of insect cell lines with higher oxygen requirements. Compared with consumables such as cell factories and cell spinner flasks, the cell culture area is smaller, and it is an economical cell culture tool.

Classification and characteristics of erlenmeyer shake flasks

High-efficiency erlenmeyer shake flasks: This type of erlenmeyer shake flask has a large capacity and is suitable for high-density cell culture. The working volume can be filled to 60-80% of the total volume, and the cell yield of the same volume of shake flask is higher. The 5L erlenmeyer shake flask is equipped with an ergonomically designed handle to facilitate the taking of the shaker and the transfer of liquid. The arc design of the bottleneck is excessively natural, and the size of the bottleneck guarantees an effective gas exchange space and is also convenient for one-handed operation.

The above are the characteristics of the two different erlenmeyer shake flasks. The same is that the two shake flasks are marked with a scale on the bottle body to facilitate the observation of the capacity of the culture medium. In the selection of bottle caps, a 0.2μm sterile vent cap is generally equipped, and a liquid transfer cap can also be selected to facilitate the aseptic transfer of liquid.

Material features of PETG media bottles

图片
  PETG media bottles   are a special packaging for storing various media, reagents, serum and other solutions, and it is also a product that scientific researchers have more contact with. The wide range of applications is mainly due to the superior properties of its materials. PETG is a transparent plastic that belongs to the non-crystalline copolyester. Serum needs to be stored in a low temperature environment. The use range of this material is -80°C to 60°C, which makes PETG media bottles fully meet the storage needs of serum. In addition, it has the following features: 1. High transparency, the light transmittance reaches 90%, which can reach the transparency of plexiglass; 2. It has stronger rigidity and hardness, excellent scratch resistance, impact resistance and toughness, which is close to or even exceeds that of polycarbonate (PC), and is suitable for injection molding, extrusion molding and extrusion blowing processing; 3. In terms of chemical resistance, oil resistance, weat

What are the common specifications of serum bottles

图片
  In biological laboratories, we often have to store various solutions and reagents. Thanks to the advantages of good performance, transparency, and temperature resistance, serum bottles have become "frequent visitors" in the laboratory. As a commonly used storage container, what are its common specifications?                      FuDau 60ml-Square-PETG-PET-Media-Bottles Common materials for serum bottles include PETG and PET, both of which have very good temperature resistance and transparency. In comparison, bottles made of PETG have more advantages in terms of barrier properties. If you want to pursue a better storage state of the solution, it is recommended to use a bottle made of PETG. There is a molded scale on the body of the bottle, we can clearly observe the capacity and state of the solution. The common specifications of this kind of container include 5ml/10ml/30ml/60ml/125ml/250ml/500ml/1000ml, etc., which are mostly used to store serum, culture medium, buffer, dis

Cell factory requirements for production raw materials

图片
Cell factories   are mainly used for large-scale cell culture. Cells have high requirements on the environment, such as temperature, humidity, osmotic pressure, pH value, etc. Therefore, this kind of   cell   consumables also has high requirements on raw materials. The first is transparency. In the process of cell culture, it is necessary to grasp the growth state of the cells at any time, and make corresponding adjustments according to the cell proliferation. Therefore, the raw materials of the cell factory must meet the requirements of transparency, so that it is convenient for researchers to observe the growth of cells. The second is the compatibility of materials. The raw materials of this consumable generally meet the requirements of USP Class VI medical polymer materials. Medical polymer materials refer to polymer materials used to manufacture human internal organs, external organs, pharmaceutical dosage forms and medical devices, and their sources include natural biopolymer mate
