Are Strex Stretch Chambers Sterilized?

Purpose

The chambers are shipped non-sterile and must be autoclaved before use.

Solution

Stretch Chambers made by Strex are non-sterile. The chamber must be autoclaved for 20 minutes at 180°C. Aluminum foil should not be used in the autoclaving process. Rather, autoclave bags (sterilization pouches) are recommended.
Note: Chambers are disposable, and heat-resistant from 0° to 180°C. Product quality and cell adhesion performance are not guaranteed when the chambers are reused, or used outside the range of heat resistance.
