Product Description
Keeping cultures and samples clean in aseptic work is simpler when your sealing film arrives already sterile. These pre-cut Parafilm strips are sterilized and individually pouched, ready to wrap plates, tubes and flasks in a cleanroom or biosafety cabinet without cutting from a roll or handling unsterile film.
This listing is for catalog number 234526BSTL: Parafilm Strips 4 x 6", Sterile, Pack of 5. Parafilm is a flexible, semi-transparent blend of waxes and polyolefins that stretches up to 200% and clings to irregular surfaces to form a moisture barrier. These strips are sterilized by vaporized hydrogen peroxide and packed in lot-traceable pouches with a color indicator. Two pre-cut sizes are offered, 2 x 8 in and 4 x 6 in. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your lab stocked.
