# Glass vial

A glass vial is a small container used to store laboratory materials. Peptides are commonly supplied in borosilicate glass vials sealed with rubber stoppers and aluminium crimp caps. Type I borosilicate glass is chemically resistant and has low extractables, making it suitable for storing sensitive compounds.
