VWR Nalgene Round Carboy Narrow Mouth without Spigot, 20L (5.3 gal.)

Use for storing and dispensing solutions and media. Ideal for sterile water storage. These high-density polyethylene, disposable carboys are ideal for storing and transfer of sterile fluids and pharmaceutical/biotech reagents.

Carboys are rigid containers primarily used for transporting liquids, often water or chemicals. In laboratories, the containers are usually made of plastic, though some are still made of ferric glass or other shatter-resistant glasses. With a high chemical resistance and opaque exteriors to block ultraviolet light, the carboys store large quantities of liquids, such as solvents and deionized water, that will remain unaltered. Polypropylene carboys are autoclavable for easy sterilization.

Carboys are well suited for use in temperatures ranging from -100 to 100 °C (-148 to 212 °F). Carboys are leak-proof under standard test conditions.
