The B3000-100-B is the smaller pack-size of the hybex Media Storage Bottle family — 100 mL bottles with standard GL45 blue caps, sold as 10-bottle pack at $129 ($12.94 per bottle). Same GL45 industry-standard thread as the 1000 mL sister, sized for small-volume media / buffer / reagent storage workflows.
For full chemistry rationale (GL45 thread compatibility, color-coding organization, accessory-compatible workflows, application profile), see the B3000-1000-B (1000 mL) anchor page.

When to Pick the 100 mL Pack
| Volume need | Best pick |
| Small-volume aliquot storage (single-protocol-volume reagents, working-aliquot stocks, single-use aliquots) | B3000-100-B (this product) — 100 mL × 10/pk |
| Bulk media / buffer storage | B3000-1000-B — 1000 mL × 10/pk |
Pick the 100 mL pack (B3000-100-B) when:
- Workflow needs small working aliquots of media / buffer / reagents
- Single-use aliquot storage for sterile media or buffer where bulk-bottle exposure to air would compromise sterility across many workflow days
- Per-protocol volume sizing — a single protocol uses ~50–100 mL of a buffer; the 100 mL bottle is the right working size
- Multi-buffer / multi-reagent organization — many small-volume bottles for diverse reagent types (vs few large-volume bottles for high-volume reagents)
- Educational laboratory — student-cohort small-volume reagent aliquots
Pick the 1000 mL pack (B3000-1000-B) when bulk media storage at the 1 L scale matches workflow throughput.

Ordering & Configuration
Pair with cap accessories per workflow — solid screw caps for storage, vented caps for autoclaving, dispensing caps for repetitive aliquoting. Confirm cap-accessory inventory at order.
Confirm autoclave compatibility. Most hybex bottles are autoclave-safe with vented caps; confirm intended autoclave protocol.
Plan for bottle-rotation cycle. Plan periodic replacement at facility scale.
Confirm at quote: bottle / cap material, autoclave compatibility, cap-color organization plan, intended workflow scale, and lead time.
Warranty: Per Benchmark Scientific standard consumable terms.
