Material introduction of erlenmeyer shake flasks

 Erlenmeyer shake flasks are widely used in the fields of microbiology and cell biology. They can be used with large-capacity culture shakers and are suitable for full-time suspension culture, medium preparation or storage. Cells have very high requirements for the environment, so what material is generally used for erlenmeyer shake flasks?

The material of the erlenmeyer shake flask is mainly plastic, mostly polycarbonate (PC) material and PETG material. Polycarbonate (PC for short in English) is a high molecular weight polymer containing carbonate groups in the molecular chain. It is colorless and transparent, heat-resistant, impact-resistant, flame-retardant, BI-level, and has good mechanical properties at ordinary operating temperatures. It has a wide range of applications in the building materials industry, automobile manufacturing, medical equipment, aerospace, packaging, optical lenses and other fields. It can be used for medical cups, tubes, bottles, dental equipment, pharmaceutical containers and surgical equipment, and even Used as artificial organs such as artificial kidney and artificial lung.

Material introduction of erlenmeyer shake flasks

PETG is a transparent, non-crystalline copolyester. Its products are highly transparent and have excellent impact resistance. It is especially suitable for forming thick-walled transparent products. It has excellent processing and molding properties and can be designed in any shape according to the designer's intention. It may use traditional extrusion, injection, blow molding and blister molding methods, which can be widely used in the market of plates, sheets, high-performance shrink films, bottles and profiled materials. At the same time, it has excellent secondary processing performance and can be used for Conventional machining modification.

Polycarbonate (PC) and PETG materials are commonly used materials for erlenmeyer shake flasks. No matter which material is selected, it must meet the various needs of cell culture to ensure the smooth progress of cell culture.

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

Elevating Serum Storage: PETG Media Bottles for Blood Serum

图片
  In the dynamic world of serum storage, the choice of containers plays a pivotal role in preserving the integrity and efficacy of blood serum. Enter   PETG Media Bottles , a game-changer for blood serum manufacturers seeking a reliable and innovative solution for storage. Preserving Purity: PETG, a high-performance polymer, forms the foundation of these media bottles. Its inert nature ensures that the stored blood serum remains unaltered, preserving its purity and preventing any leaching of contaminants. This is especially critical for serum manufacturers aiming to deliver consistently high-quality products. Secure Seal for Longevity: Equipped with precision-fit caps, PETG Media Bottles create an airtight seal, shielding the blood serum from external influences. The secure seal not only maintains the longevity of the serum but also prevents the risk of contamination, ensuring that the serum's composition remains intact throughout storage. PETG Media Bottles Clarity for Quality Ass

PETG Media Bottles vs Glass Media Bottles

图片
In the field of cell culture consumables, choosing the right type of bottle for storing and handling media is crucial. Two common options are   PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) media bottles   and glass media bottles. This article aims to provide a comparative analysis of these two choices, focusing on the advantages of PETG media bottles, our core product. 1.Material Differences: PETG Media Bottles: PETG is a type of plastic known for its durability, chemical resistance, and transparency. PETG media bottles are lightweight and shatterproof, making them an excellent choice for shipping and handling. They also have excellent gas barrier properties, reducing the risk of contamination. Glass Media Bottles: Glass media bottles are known for their traditional appearance and the ability to maintain the integrity of the stored contents. However, they are fragile and prone to breakage, which can lead to safety hazards and contamination concerns. 2.Impact on Cell Culture: PETG Media Bot
