Key Features

Product Details

The cap mold is specially designed and produced through one-shot molding without the need for an inner gasket, allowing the cap to fit more securely to the body for enhanced sealing performance

The smooth inner surface minimizes residue on the walls, while the uniform wall thickness enhances resistance to cracking and puncturing

Enhanced Protection: Double-layer packaging provides added safety against damage from external forces such as compression, vibration, or impact during transportation

Frequently Asked Questions

What are NEST polycarbonate square media and storage bottles used for?

NEST polycarbonate square bottles are designed for preparing, storing, and transferring cell-culture media, buffers, reagents, purified water, process solutions, and other laboratory liquids. They are suitable for research, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and bioprocessing workflows.

What sizes are available?

The sterile, double-bagged NEST polycarbonate square bottle range includes 1,000 mL, 2 L, 5 L, 10 L, and 20 L sizes. This selection supports applications ranging from routine laboratory preparation to bulk media and buffer storage.

How do I select the appropriate bottle size?

Choose a bottle based on the volume of liquid being prepared, stored, or transferred. The 1,000 mL and 2 L bottles are convenient for routine laboratory workflows, while the 5 L, 10 L, and 20 L bottles are better suited to larger-scale media preparation, buffer storage, and bioprocessing operations.

Are these bottles supplied sterile?

Yes. The listed NEST polycarbonate square media and storage bottles are supplied sterile, making them suitable for applications in which contamination control is important. Users should always follow their facility’s established handling and aseptic-processing procedures.

Why are the bottles double bagged?

Double-bagged packaging supports material transfer into cleanrooms and other controlled environments. The outer bag can be removed at an initial transfer point, allowing the inner package to proceed into a cleaner area according to the facility’s material-entry procedures.

Are double-bagged bottles suitable for GMP environments?

Double-bagged bottles can help support contamination-control and material-transfer procedures in GMP-regulated facilities. However, each facility is responsible for qualifying the product and confirming that it meets its specific application, validation, documentation, and standard operating procedure requirements.

What are the benefits of the square bottle design?

The square profile uses shelf, refrigerator, cold-room, and work-surface space more efficiently than many round containers. Flat sides can also make the bottles easier to organize in laboratory and production storage areas.

Why is polycarbonate used for these bottles?

Polycarbonate provides a strong, rigid, and transparent container that allows users to inspect the contents visually. Users should verify chemical compatibility, temperature limits, and process suitability for the specific liquid and application before use.

Can these bottles be used for cell-culture media and buffers?

Yes. Typical applications include preparing, storing, and transferring cell-culture media, buffer solutions, purified water, laboratory reagents, and bioprocess solutions. Suitability should be confirmed for the specific formulation, storage conditions, and workflow.

Can these bottles be used to store process intermediates?

They may be used for appropriate process intermediates and in-process solutions after the user evaluates material compatibility, required sterility, storage time, temperature conditions, closure integrity, and applicable quality requirements.

Can NEST polycarbonate square bottles be autoclaved?

Do not assume that a bottle is suitable for autoclaving solely because it is manufactured from polycarbonate. Consult the current NEST product documentation for the applicable temperature and sterilization limits, and validate the complete bottle-and-closure system under the intended process conditions.

Are these bottles compatible with refrigerated or frozen storage?

Storage suitability depends on the intended temperature, liquid volume, solution properties, headspace, and handling conditions. Review the manufacturer’s current temperature specifications and validate the bottle for the intended refrigerated or frozen-storage protocol before use.

Are the bottles reusable?

Reuse should only be considered when permitted by the manufacturer’s instructions and the facility’s validated procedures. Users must evaluate cleaning, sterilization, chemical compatibility, container condition, and cross-contamination risks before reusing any laboratory bottle.

What packaging configurations are available?

The 1,000 mL bottles are packaged 4 per pack and 12 per case. The 2 L bottles are packaged 6 per pack and 12 per case. The 5 L bottles are individually packed with 6 per case, while the 10 L and 20 L bottles are individually packed with 2 per case.

Which NEST SKUs correspond to each bottle size?

NEST SKU 334314 is the 1,000 mL bottle; SKU 355314 is the 2 L bottle; SKU 355714 is the 5 L bottle; SKU 357314 is the 10 L bottle; and SKU 357714 is the 20 L bottle.

Can these bottles replace comparable Fisher Scientific, Nalgene, or VWR products?

The cross-reference information can help identify potentially comparable products from Fisher Scientific, Nalgene, and VWR. Cross-referenced products may differ in dimensions, resin specifications, closure design, packaging, certifications, and performance. Confirm all critical requirements before approving a replacement.
