Raw material characteristics of cell factory systems

 The cell factory systems are an important cell culture container, which is processed from polystyrene raw materials and plays an important role in the large-scale culture of cells. So, what are the characteristics of this raw material? 

Polystyrene is one of the five general-purpose plastics, which is polymerized from styrene monomer. Its characteristics are as follows:

1. Light weight, less water absorption, colorless and transparent, brittle, glass-like, tasteless and non-toxic;

2. Because the benzene ring increases the steric barrier of macromolecules and restrains molecular movement, the surface hardness and rigidity are high, and the dimensional stability is good; but the brittleness and impact strength are small, and the wear resistance and scratch resistance are poor.

3. Excellent electrical insulation performance, especially high frequency insulation;

4. The product has low impact strength and poor wear resistance;

5. Good coloring, surface decoration and radiation resistance, but poor sunlight resistance;

6. Poor sunlight resistance, excellent water, acid and alkali resistance, but poor oil resistance, soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones and esters.

7. The molding performance is very good, and it can be processed by injection, extrusion molding, blow molding, thermoforming, foaming, bonding, coating, welding, machining, hot stamping, printing and other general thermoplastic molding processing methods.

The above are the characteristics of the raw materials of the cell factory. In addition, polystyrene is different from the glass material, and the surface itself is hydrophobic. Therefore, it must be specially modified to be suitable for the better growth of adherent cells.

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
