Corning Erlenmeyer Flask 1000 ml with Vent Cap PC Total of 20 Flasks

The Corning 431147 Erlenmeyer Flask is a 1000 ml container designed for various laboratory applications, particularly those involving cell culture and liquid mixing. The Erlenmeyer shape of the flask is specifically designed to facilitate efficient swirling and mixing of liquids, making it ideal for shaker culture applications.   

This flask is constructed from optically clear polycarbonate (PC), a durable plastic that allows for easy viewing of the contents. A crucial feature is the inclusion of a vent cap, typically made of polypropylene. This vent cap is designed to allow for sterile gas exchange, providing oxygen to cells in culture while allowing carbon dioxide to escape, all while minimizing the risk of contamination.   

Corning Erlenmeyer flasks are widely used in laboratories for cell culture, media preparation, and other liquid handling procedures. The combination of the Erlenmeyer shape, vented cap, and durable polycarbonate construction makes this flask a valuable tool for various biological and chemical applications.
