2ml, 5ml, 10ml vials real capacity?
-
First time got some mix and match of 2, 5, 10ml vials from Medlab.
To my surprise, they look much bigger than their claimed capacity.
I compared 2ml side by side to the regular 3ml lyophilized pep vial and it's exactly the same.
5ml looks so gigantic that I feel it might hold up to 7ml or more.
10ml same thing.
What's going on here? Is this intentional assuming we leave some empty headspace in vials?

waste one of each and fill it with tap water. post the results!

@brandenscheidecker LOL I was thinking of doing that and I'm being stingy. I paid freaking $15 for shipping because I didn't hit $100 order minimum to get free shipping.
I'm used to Amazon Prime free shipping.

@brandenscheidecker That's 5ml vial. It can easily take up to 7ml if one uses the empty headspace.
