50 mL Polypropylene Flip Top Vials

These Flip Top Vials from MTC Bio are made from natural polypropylene and feature a one-piece design with an integral hinged cap. They are compatible with digestion equipment and protocols.

Key Functional Benefits:

• Digestion Equipment Ready: Crafted from high-purity polypropylene that withstands the thermal stresses and corrosive chemistries common in acid digestion and environmental analysis blocks.
• Molded-In Graduations: Unlike printed ink markings that can easily dissolve or smudge away when exposed to harsh reagents, the raised molded lines stay legible forever.
• Contamination Barrier: The smooth, single-handed flip-cap operation allows you to seal or open the vessel instantly, reducing the duration your samples are exposed to ambient room air.

Laboratory Bench Strategy:

• Aseptic Sleeve Management: The case is intelligently split into 20 individual bags containing 25 tubes each. For tissue culture or ultra-clean environmental assays, open only one bag at a time inside your laminar flow hood to keep the remaining inventory completely sterile.
• Acid Handling Note: While polypropylene offers outstanding resistance to a wide swath of acids and bases during hot block digestion, always check chemical compatibility charts if your protocol involves highly concentrated fuming nitric or sulfuric acid lines.
• Single-Handed Aliquoting: Take advantage of the flat-bottom design by lining up your tubes in a row on the bench. Because they stand completely stable on their own, you can rapidly flip the lids open, dose your reagents, and snap them shut using just one hand.
