Introduction to the characteristics of the media bottle

Serum refers to the colloidal liquid after removing fibrinogen from plasma. Human and animal serum is commonly used for various serological tests to help diagnose diseases. Serum is generally stored in dedicated serum bottles at -5°C to -20°C. Serum has such strict storage temperature requirements, so what are the characteristics of the media bottle as its storage container?

1. The material of the media bottle is mostly made of transparent polyester (PET). This material is non-toxic and tasteless, with high transparency, good low temperature resistance, good impact resistance, and can resist the corrosion of most acid and alkali solvents, fully satisfying Serum cryopreservation requirements.

2. The shape of the media bottle is different from the ordinary liquid plastic bottle, but is designed into a square shape. This design is ergonomic and easy to grasp and store the serum.

3. After electron beam sterilization, there is no DNase, no RNase and no heat source. Serum is the basic nutrient for cell growth, and ensuring the purity and sterility of serum is the basic condition for cell growth. Therefore, the media bottle will be specially sterilized to meet the requirements of no DNase, no RNase, and no pyrogen.

4. The bottle body has a scale, and a variety of specifications are optional. The bottle body of the media bottle is generally marked with a scale to facilitate the observation of the specific volume of the serum. Common specifications are 250ml, 500ml, 1000ml, and different specifications can be selected according to the type and use of serum.

The above are the characteristics of the media bottle. It should be noted that the media bottle cannot be sterilized by high temperature and high pressure. It can only be used to store serum or reagents, and cannot be used as a heating vessel.

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
