Description
DURAN® culture flask in Erlenmeyer shape with straight neck for metal caps is a borosilicate glass 3.3 vessel with nominal volume of 250 ml. Microbiology is a key area of biology and medicine concerned with microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa or viruses and their habitats and growth conditions. Production of pure culture media on or in which the relevant microorganisms can grow is essential; irradiation of media with IR or UV light can accelerate culture growth. Culture flasks feature large base areas that are as flat as possible so the medium layer thickness remains uniformly high. The straight necks enable fitting of Kapsenberg® and metal caps. Owing to the conical geometry these flasks are very well suited for shaking experiments such as media optimisation. An easily readable scale with line graduation permits measurement of contents, and the white printed image is burnt in for permanent durability. Typical applications include preparation of nutrient media and cultivation, setting up of cultures, liquid culture, mixing of several components and measuring of liquid volumes. This flask from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences is supplied as 1 pc with net weight 0,13 kg.

Questions about DURAN® Culture Flask Erlenmeyer shape, straight neck, for metal caps
What is this article?
DURAN® Culture Flask Erlenmeyer shape, straight neck, for metal caps 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.
