- Ensure consistent gas exchange and minimize contamination
- Polyethylene caps with an integral, hydrophobic 0.2 µm microporous membrane filter vent allow consistent gas exchange when the caps are in the closed position.
- Gases required or cell growth and metabolism pass freely through the vent while microorganisms cannot. Falcon vented caps will not wet out.
- Vented caps minimize contamination associated with standard open incubation. The vented caps prevent media that can become trapped in a partially opened cap from blocking gas exchange. The caps will not fall off in the incubator because of vibration.
