SYRINGE, s.u., Luer, 5 ml

• BARREL: the reservoir for holding the liquid
• transparent polypropylene / polyisoprene
• capacity: 1 ml, 2 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml and 50-60 ml
• scale markings are etched or printed on the barrel: in millilitres, easily readable
• graduations: every 0.01 ml (1 ml syringe), every 0.1 ml (2 ml syringe), every 0.2 ml (5 ml syringe), every 0.5 ml (10 ml syringe) or every 1 ml (20 and 50 ml syringe)
• with flanges: "wings" that jut out from the side of the syringe barrel. they provide an area or surface for the index finger and the middle finger to grasp during aspiration or administration.
• with retaining ring (plunger backstop) to prevent accidental plunger rod withdrawal
• ending with a male Luer tip: slip or push-on connection for a needle
• PLUNGER: a piston-like device inside the barrel, designed for single-handed operation
• polypropylene, polyethylene
• perfectly fit to slide easily and smoothly inside the barrel
• with thumb press: an area where one presses to push the plunger rod down into the barrel to expel contents.
• plunger tip: the three part syringes end in a synthetic elastomer plunger tip or gasket, flat or dome shaped. This tip assures a perfect plunger barrel seal integrity and a flawless gliding behaviour. The gasket may be double-contact.
• Sterile, for single use

Note: the 1 ml and 50/60 ml syringes are mostly 3-part syringes (including a gasket), the 2 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml and 20 ml syringes are also available as two-part syringes (without gasket). The barrel material of these two-part syringes often contains a lubricant allowing a smooth advancement of the plunger without the need of a rubber ring.
