# Overview

The items that sit inside our sales items

These are the items that sit inside a sales item under a name of their own. A dilution vial inside the ready-made pack, QC stock inside the QC bundle, the external filters that ship with a flow cell.

We do not sell them on their own and none of them is on the price list. The pack size in the name is how the item is packed inside a sales item, not a quantity you can order.

They are here so you can identify what is in your hand, and quote a number if you need one.

<table><thead><tr><th width="100">Item no.</th><th width="230">Item</th><th>Where it comes from</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>DV01</code></td><td><a href="/item-register/individual-items/dilution-vial.md">Dilution vial (20×)</a></td><td>Inside <code>DR01</code> and <code>QC06</code></td></tr><tr><td><code>DL01</code></td><td><a href="/item-register/individual-items/dilution-liquid-5-l.md">Dilution liquid (5 L)</a></td><td>Inside <code>DB01</code></td></tr><tr><td><code>VI06</code></td><td><a href="/item-register/individual-items/empty-vial.md">Empty vial (100×)</a></td><td>Inside <code>DB01</code></td></tr><tr><td><code>QC05</code></td><td><a href="/item-register/individual-items/qc-stock.md">QC stock (2×)</a></td><td>Inside <code>QC06</code></td></tr><tr><td><code>PF01</code></td><td><a href="/item-register/individual-items/external-filter.md">External filter (2×)</a></td><td>Ships with <code>FC03</code></td></tr></tbody></table>

You make the [sample vial](/item-register/vials-you-prepare/sample-vial.md) and the [QC vial](/item-register/vials-you-prepare/qc-vial.md) yourself as you use BactoBox®. They sit under Vials you prepare.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.sbtinstruments.com/item-register/individual-items/overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
