[NHCOLL-L:3174] RE: source for polyethylene stoppers

[Lundberg, Holly]

Hi,

Daigger Lab Equipment and Supplies sells a line of culture tube caps -
some snap over the top of the vial, and another style plugs inside. They
do not have opening in the top however, it's easy to cut slits into the
tops of the ones which snap over the glass culture tubes. You can view
them at the following URL:
http://www.daigger.com/catalog/product;jsessionid=0001FGTZKKQY5005ZZO0A2
WCSAI:tu5a83sd?deptId=Tubes&prodId=545-010

You can find polyethylene shell vial caps/plugs with the built in
starburst septa for insertion of needles) through Fisher Scientific

Subject: [NHCOLL-L:3173] source for polyethylene stoppers

Greetings, I'm looking for a source for open-ended 
polyethylene stoppers that fit shell vials (6 and 8 dram; 
22-25 mm diameter). The vials can be purchased with 
appropriate sized stoppers from sources like VWR or 
Kimble-Kontas but the stoppers apparently are not sold 
separately. I would appreciate any leads you can offer.

Sincerely,
Cindy
