Need two of these vials-Any Help?
« on: February 05, 2008, 04:14:57 AM »
Hello - I decided to approach this in a different way, I originally asked as to what type of vial this is in the attached photo, I now have the answer due to the find members here on this forum-thank you!
However, not to complicate this, I would like to find out if anyone out here in the forums would have two or three of these empty vials as shown in the attached photo that would be willing to sell to me?
The reason I request this, is the companies that make these vials I want, only sell them in cases or quantities of 80-100 vials, I simply have no need to acquire that many, I only like to get ahold of two or three of them, can anyone help me out with this request?

As always, many thanks!!

When I type "conical bottom limited volume vial" into Google image search, I get pictures of adverts that are similar to yours.  That's what I always called those types of vials -- limited volume or conical bottom, vials.

Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.

Is that sample glowing from its radioactivity?  If so, what is in that vial?

Cool, thanks.  I don't have enough pictures of things glowing from their own radioactivity.  (I really want one of Ac metal, actually.)
