Description
Thermo Scientific SH3B21617.01 1000mL Cateye Labtainer w/Luer Locks
Items are new, box open. 50 count contents are accounted for and individually wrapped. Use by date is 4/2025. Labtainers properly stored in lab environment.
In Thermo Fisher’s bioprocessing catalog, the inclusion of the word “Cateye” (often formatted as cat-eye) refers specifically to their upgraded port design. Instead of using traditional round ports, these BPCs utilize an elongated, aerodynamic “cat-eye” shaped port geometry integrated via impulse heat sealing. This structural enhancement provides a much stronger seal at the bag’s edge, minimizes liquid holdup, and optimizes drainage.
-
- Chamber Dimensions: 18.5 x 30.0 cm (7.3 x 11.8 in.)
- Total Surface Area: 136.8 sq. in.
- Port Configuration: Standard 1L configurations feature a 2-port design utilizing the impulse heat-sealed cat-eye ports. Port sizes can span from 1/8 in. to 1/2 in. to facilitate direct tubing hookups without needing step-up or step-down adapters.
- Handling: Equipped with a standard hanging grommet at the top for easy installation in standard bioprocessing workstations or 1L support trays.
- Film Material (Typically CX5-14): Composed of high-performance outer barrier layers (such as polyester elastomer and EVOH gas-barrier layers) coextruded with a clean, low-density polyethylene (PE) product contact layer.
- Common Applications: Due to its closed system design and 1000 mL sizing, this container is typically utilized for: ~ Development-scale applications: Aseptic sampling, bench-top workflows, and small-batch preparation.
- Process Development & Pilot Operations: Buffer/media preparation, intermediate product holds, and chromatography fractions.
