Polyethylene Cell Scraper Biologix 70-1180 Sterile 18cm Handle 100pcs

Description

Product Overview

The Biologix 70-1180 Polyethylene Cell Scraper is engineered for laboratories that demand reliable, contamination‑free tools for cell culture and tissue handling. Constructed from high‑grade polyethylene, the scraper blade offers a smooth, non‑abrasive surface that gently lifts adherent cells without damaging delicate membranes. The 1.8 cm blade length provides precise control, while the 18 cm ergonomic handle allows comfortable operation during extended procedures.

Each scraper is individually wrapped in a sterile barrier, guaranteeing a clean, ready‑to‑use instrument straight from the package. The packaging dimensions of 11.42 × 7.2 × 5.04 inches and a lightweight 1.87 lb per case of 100 units make storage and inventory management straightforward for busy research facilities.

Model BLX‑70‑1180 has been a trusted component in cell‑culture workflows since its introduction in 2011, earning a top‑20 ranking in the Lab Cell Scrapers & Spreaders category on major e‑commerce platforms. Its design balances durability with the gentle touch required for sensitive biological samples, making it a versatile addition to any laboratory’s consumable inventory.

Beyond the core functionality, the scraper’s transparent polyethylene material resists chemical absorption, ensuring that reagents or media do not linger on the surface. This property contributes to reproducible experimental outcomes and reduces the risk of cross‑contamination between samples.

Usage

Designed for a wide range of cell‑culture applications, the Biologix scraper excels in tasks such as detaching adherent cells, scraping tissue fragments, and preparing samples for downstream analysis. Its sterile packaging makes it ideal for aseptic techniques in biosafety cabinets, where maintaining a contaminant‑free environment is critical.

Researchers working with mammalian, insect, or plant cell lines will appreciate the scraper’s balance of flexibility and rigidity. The 18 cm handle provides sufficient leverage for larger culture vessels, while the compact blade fits comfortably into standard 6‑well plates, T‑flasks, and petri dishes.

Because each unit is individually wrapped, the scraper can be taken directly to the bench without the need for additional sterilization steps, saving valuable time during high‑throughput experiments. The product’s compatibility with common laboratory disinfectants further enhances its utility in diverse protocols.

FAQ

Is the scraper compatible with all cell culture vessels?

Yes, the 1.8 cm blade is designed to fit standard petri dishes, 6‑well plates, T‑flasks, and many other common laboratory containers. The ergonomic handle also provides enough reach for larger vessels, making it a versatile tool across multiple formats.

How is sterility maintained after the package is opened?

Each scraper is sealed in an individual sterile pouch that protects the blade until the moment of use. Once the pouch is opened, the scraper should be handled with aseptic technique and used promptly. The polyethylene material does not retain moisture, helping to preserve sterility for the duration of the procedure.

Can the scraper be autoclaved if additional sterilization is required?

The polyethylene construction is heat‑stable up to typical autoclave temperatures, but because the product is supplied sterile, autoclaving is generally unnecessary. If a laboratory protocol mandates autoclaving, the scraper can safely endure a standard 121 °C cycle for 15 minutes without deformation.

What is the recommended storage condition for the scrapers?

Store the scrapers in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. The sealed packaging protects the blades from dust and moisture, and maintaining a stable temperature helps preserve the integrity of the polyethylene material over time.
