The oblong flat-bottom profile provides a stable footprint on the benchtop while the larger 8.5 mL capacity accommodates generous sample or reagent volumes. Part number 127-0080-R10 is well suited to routine dispensing, aliquoting, and color-coded sample organization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number (MPN)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e127-0080-R10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.5 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOblong\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottom\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlat (freestanding)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard Sample Cup\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolystyrene (PS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSterility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-Sterile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePack Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000\/Bag\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBulk sample aliquoting and reagent dispensing at the bench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor-coded specimen organization and workflow differentiation using the red cup format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemporary holding of aqueous samples and biological buffers during processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-volume routine laboratory dispensing where larger capacity cups are required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral liquid handling in clinical, research, and industrial laboratory environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; Chemical Resistance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolystyrene is a rigid thermoplastic that performs well with aqueous samples, standard biological buffers, and dilute aqueous reagents. As with all PS labware, acetone, alcohols above 70%, and aromatic or chlorinated solvents should be avoided, as these can craze, cloud, or dissolve the material. Polystyrene is not autoclavable; if heat sterilization is required, an alternative material should be considered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality \u0026amp; Procurement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in USA, Caplugs® Evergreen sample cups are produced under ISO 9001 quality management from BPA-free, phthalate-free, latex-free resin.
