Purillex™ Jars for Life Sciences
Brochures and specifications | 2022 | SavillexInstrumentation
In modern life science research and bioprocessing, the integrity and chemical stability of sample containers are critical. Purillex PFA jars address stringent cleanliness requirements, resist aggressive chemicals, and maintain performance across extreme temperature ranges, supporting applications from archival storage to cryogenic sample handling.
This article presents key design features, performance characteristics, and practical applications of Purillex PFA jars. It aims to inform laboratories and industrial users about the product’s advantages, operating limits, and ordering information for optimized sample management.
Purillex jars are produced via precision injection molding using high-purity PFA resin procured from certified manufacturers. The process yields seamless containers with radiused interiors and high-quality threads, eliminating secondary machining to reduce particulate contamination. Sterilization is conducted by autoclaving, with validation to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6.
Purillex jars are available in 60 mL, 120 mL, and 240 mL sizes, each with wide-mouth openings and radiused bottoms for efficient content transfer. They maintain seal integrity from –196 °C (liquid nitrogen) up to 260 °C. Pre-sterilized units are double-bagged and carry a five-year shelf life, ensuring readiness for aseptic workflows.
Emerging demands include custom FEP formulations, integration of barcoding and RFID for sample tracking, and expansion into automated processing platforms. Advances in surface treatments may further reduce adsorption and enhance anti-fouling properties for sensitive biomolecules.
Purillex PFA jars offer a robust solution for critical life science applications, combining exceptional chemical inertness, temperature resilience, and sterility. Their design and validated manufacturing processes address contamination and handling challenges, reinforcing their role in modern laboratories and industrial bioprocessing.
