Description
DURAN® culture flask of Fernbach type with bulbous shape and 450 ml nominal volume is intended for microbiological media preparation and cultivation of microorganisms. The large, flat base area promotes a uniform medium layer thickness, supporting even growth of bacterial, fungal or other cultures. An extensive liquid surface improves aeration and thereby accelerates microbial development. Constructed from borosilicate glass 3.3, the flask offers high chemical resistance and thermal stability compatible with autoclaving and sterilisation cycles. Permanent white printed graduations remain legible over extended use. This culture flask from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences is particularly suited to liquid cultures, nutrient-media preparation and processes that benefit from enhanced oxygen transfer. The characteristic bulbous Fernbach geometry maximises the surface-to-volume ratio relative to conventional flasks. Laboratories in microbiology, biotechnology and medical research employ such vessels to maintain consistent culture conditions and efficient growth of pure cultures.
This article is part of Cell culture flasks, in Cell culture.

Questions about DURAN® Culture Flask Fernbach Type, bulbous shape
What is this article?
DURAN® Culture Flask Fernbach Type, bulbous shape is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture flasks, inside Cell culture, in Microbiology lab supplies.
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.
