When the integrity of your research or manufacturing programs depend on working with and storing delicate and valuable samples, you’ll want to ensure that you do not wind up wasting any of these vital substances. Using the best available storage solutions can reduce loss of materials to the absolute minimum.
Wheaton’s high recovery vials are uniquely is designed so as to permit maximum retrieval of the sample content with a syringe or pipette. For this purpose they have a smooth, conical interior surface. Wheaton’s high recovery vials are made from low expansion borosilicate glass, which makes them much more resistant to thermal shock than traditional types of glass. This means that you don’t need to worry about them shattering at high temperatures, destroying your costly sample.
Why Choose High Recovery Vials?
High recovery vials are much more efficient than standard, flat bottom vials, which create residual waste due to the fact that it is impossible to withdraw all of the contents using a syringe or pipette. In order to compensate for this wastage, pharmaceutical manufacturers have to slightly overfill vials so that an adequate volume of the sample can be retrieved. High recovery vials permit downward drainage and pooling in the conical tip, enabling more of the sample to be withdrawn. Wheaton recently performed a study on their high recovery vials and found that there was a 99% reduction in waste compared to flat bottom vials. This allows pharmaceutical manufacturers to fill high recovery vials with the same batch volume.
Wheaton’s high recovery vials have screw cap or crimp/serum closures, which will prevent your samples from becoming contaminated and will maintain the integrity of your test results. These vials are ideal for the packaging and handling of pharmaceuticals and sample storage and lyophilixation as well as for storing:
- Reagents
- Media
- Serums
- Blood samples
- Vaccines
Concentrations and reactions can be performed directly into the sampling vial, which eliminated the need for sample transfer. The vials are available in a range of sizes in clear class to allow complete visibility or in amber glass to guarantee UVA protection.
