15 ml Polycarbonate Vial Sets, PE Lined Caps (Case of 10 vial sets, 50 vials) 

Our ready-to-use 15 ml Polycarbonate Vial Sets with Lined Caps are intended for researchers who require sample homogenization for extraction and/or analysis. Polyethylene-lined caps are recommended for wet grinding with buffers (for organic solvents use silicone-lined caps). The vial sets are extremely durable and can be submersed in liquid nitrogen and immediately homogenized, making them ideal for difficult-to-grind samples. Most samples that utilize 15 ml Polycarbonate Vial Sets with Lined Caps are cereal grasses such as corn, oats, sorghum, and winter wheat grains (switchgrass roots, rhizomes and shoots, and dry bean roots.)   

Each 15 ml Polycarbonate Vial Set contains:

5 15 ml Polycarbonate Vials

5 Polyethylene-Lined Polypropylene Caps

10 pre-cleaned 7/16” 440C stainless steel grinding balls (2 per vial)

1 foam holder

1 polyethylene storage box

To use, simply detach the lid from the storage box and remove the caps. Add sample and buffer (if desired). Then replace the caps, and place the entire storage box, without the lid, onto the homogenizer platform for ambient processing. (NOTE: Vials should be placed in Cryoblocks for cryogenic grinding). 

Sold in cases of ten vial sets (equal to 50 pre-loaded vials).
