Corning Storage Bottle 150 ml Plug Seal Cap Sterile Polystyrene Lot of 48 Bottles

Corning 150 mL Polystyrene Storage Bottles, Plug Seal Cap, Sterile (431175) – Lot of 48

The Corning 150 mL Storage Bottles (431175) are high-purity, optical-clarity laboratory vessels engineered for the safe storage, media preparation, and sampling of sensitive biological fluids, tissue culture media, and chemical buffers. Molded from premium, heavy-gauge virgin polystyrene, these low-binding bottles offer glass-like transparency while providing a lightweight, break-resistant alternative for cell culture and general laboratory workflows. Each bottle is paired with a heavy-duty, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plug seal cap designed to form a reliable, leak-proof barrier against fluid loss and environmental contamination. Supplied as a specialized laboratory lot of 48 individually wrapped sterile bottles (packaged as 2 inner bags of 24 bottles), this consumable line is certified clean and ready for immediate use in aseptic biosafety environments.

Technical Performance & Structural Engineering

• Gas-Tight Plug Seal Closure: Outfitted with a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plug seal cap that engages smoothly with the bottle neck to create an airtight, liquid-tight seal. This design prevents evaporation, oxidation, and sample leakage during transport or extended cold storage.
• High-Clarity Optical Polystyrene: Precision-molded from high-grade virgin polystyrene, enabling clear visual inspection of contents, color changes, and particle suspension without opening the container.
• Molded-In Volumetric Graduations: Features prominent, highly legible white enamel or raised molded graduation marks along the side wall to ensure quick, accurate volume measurements and liquid monitoring.
• Certified Bio-Purity Profile: Pre-sterilized via gamma irradiation to achieve a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6. Every lot is certified non-pyrogenic, non-cytotoxic, and free of detectable RNase and DNase contamination.
