Description

Description

  • Key performance benefit: Short double-ended spatula designed for scooping, scraping, stirring, and transferring materials in confined spaces.
  • Material & construction: Made of 99% polypropylene and 1% EcoPure® additive. Hollow core construction uses less plastic and minimizes heat or cold transfer.
  • Risk reduction/compliance benefit: Uses 34% less plastic than standard spatulas while maintaining material performance by incorporating the EcoPure® additive.
  • Protection level: Resistant to dilute acids and bases, and will not shatter after exposure to liquid nitrogen frozen samples.
  • Comfort & usability: Compact 140 mm length designed for confined spaces. Spoon/scraper fits into 15 mL tubes, and scoop fits into 0.5 mL tubes.
  • Safety & compliance assurance: FDA-compliant for food contact. US Patent 8,709,362.

FAQs

When is a shorter spatula preferred over a standard-length spatula?

A shorter spatula is ideal for working in confined spaces such as fume hoods, small containers, or crowded benchtop setups. The compact length allows for better control and maneuverability, making it easier to handle materials precisely when access is limited or when working close to the sample surface.

How does the EcoPure® additive impact laboratory use?

The EcoPure® additive helps reduce plastic use while maintaining the spatula's functional performance. This makes it a suitable option for laboratories aiming to reduce material consumption without compromising usability, especially in high-volume environments where disposable tools are frequently used.

What types of tasks benefit from the double-ended design in tight spaces?

The double-ended design allows users to perform scooping, scraping, and transferring tasks without switching tools, which is particularly helpful in confined areas. This can improve workflow efficiency and reduce handling time when working in small vessels or limited-workspace environments.

Is this spatula suitable for handling temperature-sensitive samples?

Yes, the hollow core construction helps minimize heat or cold transfer during handling. This can improve user comfort and reduce the impact of temperature changes when working with chilled or frozen samples, supporting more controlled manipulation in laboratory procedures.

What should be considered when using this spatula in high-volume workflows?

In high-throughput environments, users should ensure proper storage and handling to maintain consistency across uses. Keeping spatulas clean or following disposal protocols, depending on workflow requirements, helps maintain reliable performance and supports efficient sample handling during repeated laboratory tasks.
