Efficient Design for Versatile Laboratory ApplicationsThe Reagent Reservoir's rectangular shape and translucent polypropylene construction make it perfect for a wide range of laboratory tasks. With clear graduation markings and capacity options of 50 mL and 100 mL, it supports accurate handling of reagents, culture media, and samples. Its compatibility with single and multi-channel pipettes allows efficient pipetting while the integrated spout promotes spill-free pouring.
Space-Saving and Durable ConstructionDesigned for modern laboratories, this reservoir can be safely stacked, saving valuable bench space. As it's built from chemically resistant PP, it stands up to common solvents and acids. Its sturdy yet lightweight structure (10-20 grams) ensures durability and ease of use, making it suitable for various laboratory environments and workflows.
Reusable and Sterility Options for Flexible UseAvailable in both sterile and non-sterile versions, the reservoir caters to a variety of experimental protocols and safety requirements. Reusability is assured thanks to its ability to withstand repeated autoclaving up to 121C. This flexibility contributes to cost-effectiveness and reliability, whether for routine use or critical applications.
FAQ's of Reagent Reservoir, PP:
Q: How can I accurately measure liquid volumes using the reagent reservoir?
A: The reagent reservoir features clear, molded graduation markings designed for precise volume measurement. Simply pour your liquid directly into the reservoir and read the volume against the graduated scale for accurate dispensing or pipetting.
Q: What are the benefits of using a polypropylene (PP) reagent reservoir in laboratory work?
A: Polypropylene is highly resistant to acids and solvents, ensuring compatibility with most common reagents. It also enables repeated autoclaving up to 121C, making the reservoir reusable and cost-effective for various laboratory processes.
Q: When should a sterile versus a non-sterile reagent reservoir be used?
A: Choose a sterile reservoir for experiments where contamination must be avoided, such as in cell culture or molecular biology. Non-sterile versions are suitable for general laboratory procedures where sterility is not a primary concern.
Q: Where can these reservoirs be stacked, and does stacking affect their function?
A: The reservoirs are designed to be safely stacked on laboratory benches or storage shelves. Stackability does not compromise their function and helps maximize available workspace in busy lab settings.
Q: What pipette types are compatible with this reagent reservoir?
A: The reservoir supports use with single and multi-channel pipettes, making it ideal for high-throughput or standard liquid handling tasks in laboratories.
Q: How do I clean and reuse the reagent reservoir?
A: After use, clean the reservoir thoroughly and autoclave it at temperatures up to 121C for sterilization, as recommended. Its durable polypropylene construction allows multiple reuse cycles without degrading.
Q: What are the main applications and advantages of using this rectangular reagent reservoir?
A: This reservoir is primarily used for holding and dispensing reagents, culture media, and samples during laboratory procedures. Its clear markings, chemical resistance, and integrated spout streamline workflows, support precise pipetting, and minimize the risk of spills.
