Technical Narrative
The Caplugs® Evergreen 222-3010-080 is a 10 mL PPC Sterile Transport Vial with Natural Cap, 25/Bag Unassembled. The 10 mL format is the largest in the transport vial series, suited to specimen types requiring more volume than the 5.0 mL or 7.0 mL formats — including stool aliquots, high-volume body fluid fractions, and specimens requiring larger transport media volumes for analyte stability during transit.
Polypropylene Copolymer (PPC): optical clarity for visual specimen inspection, full organic solvent and transport media compatibility, improved cold-temperature flexibility. BPA-free, phthalate-free, FDA-compliant,
Procurement economics: $140.86/Bag, $5.6341/vial. Siblings: 222-3005-080 (5.0 mL PPC 25/Bag); 222-3007-080 (7.0 mL PPC 25/Bag); 222-3003-085 (2.5 mL PPC 25/Bag). LabSupplies.com ships from USA inventory, typically same business day.

Clinical & Research Laboratory Applications
Caplugs® Evergreen 10 mL PPC sterile transport vials serve clinical microbiology, gastroenterology, and reference laboratory workflows requiring the largest standard transport vial format. Stool and fecal specimen transport for ova and parasite examination, C. difficile toxin testing, and fecal microbiota analysis uses the 10 mL format when the specimen collection device or preservative volume exceeds the 7.0 mL vial capacity. Reference labs use 10 mL PPC vials for high-volume sub-aliquoting from primary specimens in 24-hour urine collections, large-volume body fluid fractions, and batched analytical sample preparation where the full analytical test panel requires 8–10 mL per analytical run.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the 10 mL transport vials sterile?
Yes. Sterile — packed 25/Bag, unassembled (vial + cap in same bag).
How does the 10 mL vial differ from the 7 mL (222-3007-080)?
The 10 mL format provides 43% more volume than the 7 mL — suited when specimen collection device, preservative, or transport media volume exceeds the 7 mL capacity. Both are PPC with natural caps. Select by the minimum volume required for your complete specimen + media at transport.
What is the full transport vial size range from Caplugs Evergreen?
2.5 mL PPC (222-3003-085), 5.0 mL HDPE (222-3005-070), 5.0 mL PPC (222-3005-080/08K), 7.0 mL PPC (222-3007-080), 10 mL PPC . All sterile with natural caps.
