Prepare large volume media and cultures with Thermo Scientific™ Nalgene™ Round Polycarbonate Clearboy™ with Spigot. These durable Clearboy are lighter and safer than glass, and especially useful for visual inspection of contents for quality. Ideal for refrigerated or frozen storage of aqueous solutions, or for dispensing sterile water, aqueous reagents and media. Nalgene polycarbonate carboys can be autoclaved before refilling to eliminate bacterial growth when storing sterile solutions. Made only from high quality, laboratory-grade plastic materials for dependably low leachables and extractables.
Includes:
Polypropylene spigot screw closure and TPE gasket. See autoclaving instructions for more information.
Note:
Completely disengage closure threads and disassemble spigot before autoclaving
Follow product insert instructions for autoclaving to ensure proper function
Note: Tubing adaptor is not autoclavable
Repeated autoclaving will shorten the life of polycarbonate carboys
Use pH neutral detergent and rinse completely prior to autoclaving
Please recycle the corrugate cartons and LDPE bags in which your Nalgene carboy products are packaged.
† The term leakproof applies to Thermo Scientific Nalgene products that meet the following criteria: a) Bottle/flask/funnel closure systems with closures smaller than 100mm, after they are filled with water, inverted, withstand air pressure of 2psig for 2 minutes, and no water escapes;. b) Bottle/funnel/flask closure systems of larger than 100mm after they are filled with water, inverted for 15 minutes, and no water escapes. Note: these tests, using other liquids, may not yield the same results. To ensure safe usage, customers are advised to test Thermo Scientific Nalgene bottles and closures under conditions of their planned applications. Thermo Scientific Nalgene products are leakproof at ambient temperature and pressure when used with their Nalgene closures.
