Vials, Snap Top, Plastic. Clear, 300ul MicroVial, LCMS Compatible. An 11mm snap-ring and 12x32mm outer dimensions. For use as an autosampler vial. AQ Brand. 100/PK.
Additional Info:
The 9532C‑MS AQ™ Brand Snap‑Top Plastic MicroVial is a 300 µL polypropylene autosampler vial designed for LC‑MS and bio‑analytical workflows where glass is not suitable. These microvials are manufactured from ultra‑pure, virgin, medical‑grade polypropylene and are translucent for easy sample visibility.
Each vial incorporates a built‑in insert with a total fill capacity of 300 µL, allowing residual volumes as low as ~2 µL, depending on autosampler design and sample viscosity. This low‑residual configuration supports efficient recovery from limited sample volumes.
The specially formulated polypropylene is processed using a controlled molding process with no additives, resulting in a plastic vial that is compatible with most LC‑MS solvents and exhibits virtually no extractables under typical LC‑MS conditions. This makes the vial well suited for sensitive analytical workflows.
Plastic microvials are commonly selected for samples that react with glass and are widely used in bio‑analysis and aqueous sample analysis. This product is often chosen as a direct alternative to higher‑cost “LC‑MS certified” plastic vial brands.
Important Use Guidance Snap caps and snap‑top vials are not generally recommended for LC‑MS applications or other critical analyses involving volatile solvents, including aqueous systems. For these applications, screw‑thread vials with matched caps and septa are generally preferred. Validation under actual use conditions is recommended when snap‑top formats are selected.
