Description
Nalgene™ polycarbonate cell culture flasks with baffled bottom are purpose-built culture vessels that raise mixing efficiency in shaken microbial and cell-culture work. Fabricated from clear polycarbonate (PC), the 500 ml flasks offer a robust alternative to glass and support growth curves for E. coli and S. cerevisiae that are comparable to conventional glassware. The baffled base generates controlled turbulence, improving aeration and homogeneity during incubation on orbital shakers. Graduations on the wall allow quick volume checks, and the flasks are autoclavable for repeated sterile cycles. Supplied as a case of 12 pieces, they suit routine laboratory scale-up and parallel culture formats. These culture flasks from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics combine impact resistance with optical clarity, making them practical for everyday handling in research and process-development settings. Ideal wherever Erlenmeyer-style geometry with enhanced mixing is required, they help maintain consistent culture performance while reducing the handling risks associated with glass.
This article is part of Cell culture flasks, in Cell culture.

Questions about Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Baffled Culture Flasks
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Polycarbonate Baffled Culture Flasks is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture flasks, inside Cell culture, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A culture flask is a flat vessel with a cap, treated so adherent cells attach, or untreated for suspension cells. Growth area in square centimetres, the cap filter or a plug seal, and the treatment are the specification. A filter cap allows gas exchange. A plug seal does not.
Cell culture grows cells outside the body. The medium, often with serum, supplies what the flask does not. A flask or a dish is the vessel, treated so the cells attach or left untreated so they float. Contamination by microbes, or by another cell line, is the ordinary failure. Cold-chain articles in this work, including serum, are never part of free standard delivery. Lines are catalogued by ATCC. Papers are on PubMed. Practice is summarised by the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Cell culture. The sub-category is Cell culture flasks. The catalogue is Life Science & Microbiology.
