Product Description
Counting smaller samples in mini vials saves cocktail and storage space without sacrificing data quality. SAMPULE glass vials deliver consistent, low background counts and high ultraviolet transmission, supporting reliable liquid scintillation results in a compact 6 mL format that fits many counter racks.
This listing is for Wheaton catalog number 986492: SAMPULE Vial, Glass, 15 mm, 6 mL, Case of 1,000. Vials are converted from Type I, 33 expansion borosilicate tubing, about 17 mm in diameter and 58 mm tall, with urea caps and foil liners packaged separately. The 13 mm cap version is designed for instruments that need a cap smaller than the vial diameter to prevent jamming, while a 15 mm version is also offered. Trays are shrink-wrapped to guard against contamination. LIGHT LABS ships genuine DWK Life Sciences products with knowledgeable support from our Englewood, Colorado team.
