The application of horse serum and the characteristics of PETG media bottle

 Serum is a nutrient required for cell culture. There are many types of serum. In addition to the bovine serum we often say, horse serum is also commonly used. So which cells are this serum mainly used for, and what are the characteristics of the PETG media bottle as its container?

Serum refers to the light yellow transparent liquid separated from the fibrin in the plasma after blood coagulation, or refers to the plasma from which the fibrin has been removed. The main function is to provide basic nutrients, hormones and various growth factors, binding proteins, contact-promoting and stretching factors to protect cells from mechanical damage and protect cells in culture. Horse serum is collected from healthy horse blood as raw material, aseptic blood collection in a closed system, and microporous filtration. It is a clear liquid, free of bacteriophage, ultra-low endotoxin, no hemolysis, no foreign matter, no bacteria, fungi, mycoplasma, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc., promoting The effect of cell growth and reproduction is very good. It is suitable for cell, tissue and organ culture, cell line preservation, and monoclonal antibody development. It is an important medium for hospitals, scientific research institutions, animal vaccines, and biopharmaceutical manufacturers.

Serum that needs to be stored for a long time must be stored in a low-temperature refrigerator at -20°C-70°C, and the storage time in a 4°C refrigerator should not exceed 1 month. In view of the storage requirements of serum, one of the more prominent features of PETG media bottles is low temperature resistance. It still has a certain toughness at -70°C, which meets the storage requirements of horse serum.

Of course, the PETG media bottle is not only resistant to low temperature, its bottle also adopts a square design, which is mainly for the convenience of grasping. The bottle body has a molded scale, which is convenient for the experimenter to observe the serum capacity.

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
