IBI Scientific SS-2011 TUNAIR No-Baffle Polypropylene Erlenmeyer Flask 300 mL

The TUNAIR™ polypropylene Erlenmeyer flask systems are a unique and patented flask and closure system, designed for microbiology and biotechnology applications. The No-Baffle Shake Flask has a normal throw similar to a standard Erlenmeyer flask. The working volume is 100 ml.

All TUNAIR™ flasks and caps can be cleaned by soaking in water with a light detergent solution to loosen dirt and contaminants, then air dry.

Features:

• Normal throw
• Constructed of polypropylene

The TUNAIR™ polypropylene Erlenmeyer flask systems are a unique and patented flask and closure system, designed for microbiology and biotechnology applications. The No-Baffle Shake Flask has a normal throw similar to a standard Erlenmeyer flask. The working volume is 100 ml.

The flasks are constructed of polypropylene and resistant to most solvents.

All TUNAIR™ flasks can be cleaned by soaking in water with a light detergent solution to loosen dirt and contaminants, then air dry.

300 ml flask:

Allows for approx. 150 ml (max) of working volume for culturing cells

No-Baffle: 

The bottom inside of the flask is smooth and flat. This configuration will generate a single vortex within the media inside the flask when fastened to an orbital shaker. The shaker will need to operate at speeds above 160 rpm in order to form that vortex in the media.

Attaching the flasks to your shaker: 

IBI TUNAIR flasks can be used with nearly all standard shakers and shaker clamps. The 300 ml flask typically fits best in the 250 ml shaker clamp.

Preparing and Cleaning the TUNAIR flask: 

Your TUNAIR flasks are constructed of polypropylene plastic which allows them to be autoclaved. Once you have prepared your media inside the flask you can place the cap & filter on the flask and insert into the autoclave. Set the autoclave for wet cycle.   

Once you have harvested your cells, wash the TUNAIR flask in a mild dish soap such as Dove Dish Soap then rinse well with DI water. Do NOT rinse the Dri-Gauze filter between uses. Observe the condition of the filters between runs to make certain there are no holes or tears in the filter. If there are, replace the filter immediately.
