Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Conical-Bottom Centrifuge Bottle
Process pelleting applications such as cell culture harvesting and protein biochemistry, including ammonium sulfate precipitations, with Thermo Scientific™ Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Conical-Bottom Centrifuge Bottle. Molded of rigid and robust polycarbonate copolymer, these transparent bottles are autoclavable and offer excellent mechanical strength.
- For low to moderate speed centrifugation of biological and chemical samples
- Includes polypropylene sealing cap assembly with silicone gasket for added leakproof† assurance at maximum speeds or when spinning hazardous materials
- Must be used with Nalgene adapter for conical-bottom centrifuge bottles (DS3126-0175)
- For proper performance, bottles must be filled to 80% of total capacity
- Autoclavable, transparent, leakproof† when used with supplied Nalgene closure, molded-in graduations
- Autoclaving will shorten the life of PC centrifuge bottles
You can achieve successful leakproof† performance using these two bottles in Thermo Fisher Fiberlite F12-6x500 LEX rotor when used with the 010-0152 adaptor at speeds up to but not exceeding 24,470 x g.
† 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.
