PETG Media Bottles vs Glass Media Bottles

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 Bottles:

PETG media bottles offer a stable and controlled environment for cell culture. They are free from potential contaminants introduced by glass breakage and are easy to handle. Their transparency allows for easy monitoring of the media inside.

Glass Media Bottles:

While glass bottles are inert and do not leach chemicals into the media, they pose a higher risk of contamination due to breakage. Glass can also create glare, making it challenging to observe the contents accurately.

3.Versatility and Application:

PETG Media Bottles:

PETG media bottles are versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications, including biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and research. Their lightweight nature makes them ideal for transport and storage.

Glass Media Bottles:

Glass Media bottles are typically used in laboratory settings where the risk of breakage is lower. They are less suited for transport and may not be the best choice for field applications.

In the world of cell culture consumables, PETG media bottles offer distinct advantages over traditional glass media bottles. Their durability, chemical resistance, and lightweight design make them a top choice for various applications, ensuring a safer and more efficient cell culture process. 

At FuDau Bio, we are committed to providing high-quality PETG media bottles that meet the demands of modern laboratory practices, making them an ideal choice for researchers and professionals.Invest in the future of cell culture with PETG media bottles from FuDau Bio.

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
