The flat bottom provides stable upright storage on any benchtop or rack, while the threaded closure delivers a secure, leak-resistant seal essential for specimen containment during transit and processing. Supplied non-sterile in sealed 500\/Bag packaging, part number 220-5601-08K is well suited for high-volume clinical, anatomical pathology, and research laboratory workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\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\u003e220-5601-08K\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContainer Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThreaded Specimen Container\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottom Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlat Bottom\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpening Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide Mouth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCap Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThreaded — leak-resistant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolypropylene Copolymer (PPC)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\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\u003eBPA \/ Phthalate Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePack Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e500\/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\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUrine specimen collection — the 60 mL wide-mouth format accommodates standard collection volumes with easy patient access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTissue and biopsy collection — wide-mouth opening allows direct specimen placement and pipette access during processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSputum and stool specimen containment — threaded closure provides secure, odor-resistant sealing for transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWound and environmental swab transport — wide opening accepts swabs and collection devices without contamination risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnatomical pathology and fixation workflows — flat bottom provides stable benchtop storage during tissue fixation steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCAP-, CLIA-, and ISO 15189-regulated clinical labs requiring lot-traceable consumables with consistent dimensional uniformity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChemical Resistance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eReagent \/ Condition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqueous buffers \/ saline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDilute acids\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDilute bases\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMethanol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIsopropanol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcetonitrile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAromatic \/ chlorinated solvents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimited — not recommended for prolonged contact\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality \u0026amp; Procurement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in USA, these Caplugs® Evergreen specimen containers are produced at ISO-certified facilities from virgin-grade, FDA-registered PPC resin that is BPA-free and phthalate-free.
