Product Description
Scale up suspension cultures with a 5L shake flask that arrives with its closed transfer cap already in place. Media additions, feeds and harvests run through the attached tubing, so the culture never has to be opened during routine handling.
This listing is for NEST catalog number C10442-AKA060A: 5L High Efficiency Erlenmeyer Flask with Large Membrane Bi-Directional Transfer Cap, TPE Tube, Sterile, Case of 4 (4 x 1). The flat-base high efficiency flask is molded from polycarbonate and paired with a bi-directional transfer cap built around a large-area filter membrane for strong gas exchange. Pre-assembled TPE tubing (60 cm, 1/8" ID x 1/4" OD) supports peristaltic pump transfer. Each system is supplied sterile and packaged one per pack.
