IBI Scientific SS-5012 TUNAIR Half-Baffle Polypropylene Erlenmeyer Flask 2.5 L

TUNAIR™ Polypropylene Erlenmeyer Flasks: The Ultimate Solution for Optimal Growth

The TUNAIR™ polypropylene Erlenmeyer flask systems are a unique and patented solution, revolutionizing microbiology and biotechnology applications. These advanced Erlenmeyer flasks provide the optimum growth conditions for aerobic microorganisms, mammalian cells, and plant cells, ensuring superior culture growth and productivity compared to standard laboratory flasks.

Key Features:

• High Oxygen Absorption: Thanks to the innovative baffling and turbo-vane closure design, TUNAIR™ Erlenmeyer flasks significantly increase the availability of dissolved oxygen, promoting enhanced cell yields and superior culture growth.
• Versatile Applications: Perfect for a wide range of lab applications, including microbiology, biotechnology, and cell culture, these flasks ensure reliable and consistent results every time.
• Durable Construction: Crafted from high-quality polypropylene, TUNAIR™ Erlenmeyer flasks are built to last, offering chemical resistance and suitability for various lab environments.
• Efficiency and Reliability: The advanced design reduces handling errors and optimizes cell lysis and neutralization processes, making these flasks an essential tool for any laboratory setting.

Designed to outshine standard Erlenmeyer flasks, TUNAIR™ systems offer better culture growth, higher productivity, and exceptional performance. Upgrade your lab with TUNAIR™ polypropylene Erlenmeyer flasks and experience the difference in quality and results.

Key Details:

The Half-Baffle shake flask has two baffles that produce a vortex motion. The working volume is 1 L.

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

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.

Caps and filters are not included in this product number.

Material:

All TUNAIR flasks and caps are constructed of chemical resistant polypropylene. All flasks and caps are fully autoclavable.

2.5 Liter flask:

Allows for approx. 1 liter (max) of working volume for culturing cells

Half-Baffle:

The bottom inside of the flask has 2 raised baffles. This configuration will generate a single vortex within the media inside the flask when fastened to an orbital shaker. The half-baffle configuration will allow for slower operational rpm of the shaker while maintaining the single vortex. Less splashing occurs with the half-baffle flask which results in less cell death and higher cell densities.

Attaching the flasks to your shaker: 

IBI TUNAIR flasks can be used with nearly all standard shakers and shaker clamps. The 2.5-liter flask typically fits best into the 2-liter 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.
