DURAN borosilicate 3.3 glass is a tried and trusted material certified as non-cytotoxic (according to ISO 10993- 5:2009). DURAN glass does not leach any organic molecules that might affect the culturing of cells. In addition, DURAN glass may be depyrogenated to destroy endotoxins using dry heat or chemical based methods.

Optional Accessories:

Protective Light Shield
White silicone sleeve that covers 94% of the bottle surface. The sleeve has a number of protective functions: it blocks damaging ultraviolet (UV) light, protects the glass surface from damage, and facilitates safer handling. Silicone provides a much better grip than glass; especially when the bottle has been sprayed with 70% alcohol for surface disinfection.

GL-56 Bottle Tags
Can be used on their own for color identification or to secure the protective Light Shield around the bottle. The GL 56 Bottle Tags are available in four colors (orange, yellow, blue and purple).

GL 56 Cap Labels
Round, self-adhesive cap labels can be used to clearly indicate the separate bottles of media for each cell line, preventing possible cross-contamination.
