NuPrep Skin Prep Gel — Tubes & Single-Use Cups

Choose the container size and package count for your recording-electrode preparation supplies.

Weaver and Company NuPrep is a mildly abrasive gel that helps reduce skin impedance before compatible recording electrodes are applied. Our NuPrep family includes larger tubes, two small-tube pack counts, and single-use cups. It is a preparation product, not the adhesive paste that holds an EEG electrode in place.

Quantity 1 means one package of the selected format. We provide free standard U.S. shipping with no minimum purchase. Check the selected package's current price and availability beside the buying controls. Applicable tax is additional.

Compare all four NuPrep packages.

NuPrep container sizes, package counts, and reorder numbers

10-61 and 10-65 contain the same 25 g tube size in different quantities. The 10-91 option contains 24 cups of gel, not electrode cups. Electrodes, applicators, and conductive paste are not included.

Choose the format that fits your supply routine.

4 oz tubes: choose 10-30 when a station prefers fewer, larger containers. 25 g tubes: choose 10-61 for six small tubes or 10-65 for twenty, depending on how many supply locations and unopened replacements you need. Neither small-tube package is the single-use cup format.

Single-use cups: choose 10-91 when your procedure calls for a separately opened portion. After opening, use the gel on only one patient and discard the cup and remaining contents. A 24-cup package is not a guarantee of 24 complete examinations, and single-use packaging does not mean sterile.

These choices change the amount and dispensing format, not the need for appropriate skin preparation. Match the electrode, recording system, and facility requirements before substituting a supply.

Compare delivered package costs.

Compare the same Weaver reference and package count. Add any other supplier's shipping and required fees before comparing its total with our standard U.S. delivered price. For a per-container figure, divide by 3, 6, 20, or 24 as appropriate. For a quantity comparison, calculate delivered cost per 100 g using the totals above.

The lowest cost per gram is not automatically the right choice for a single-patient portioning requirement. Check both the dispensing format and the quantity your department expects to use before expiration.

NuPrep, Ten20, and alcohol preparation are different supplies.

NuPrep purchasing FAQs

Is every NuPrep option a three-pack?

No. Only 10-30 contain three tubes. Choose 10-61 for six 25 g tubes, 10-65 for twenty 25 g tubes, or 10-91 for twenty-four 9 g cups. The cart quantity counts complete selected packages, not individual tubes or cups.

Are NuPrep single-use cups sterile?

No. The standard 10-91 presentation is nonsterile. Once opened, a cup is for one patient only and must then be discarded, even when gel remains. Do not apply the multiple-use tube handling instructions to an opened cup.

Should NuPrep remain beneath a cardiac electrode?

No. The manufacturer directs removal of all NuPrep with dry gauze before cardiac-electrode placement. Other electrode procedures have their own removal instructions; do not assume NuPrep is a leave-on adhesive gel.

Can I use NuPrep with TENS or NMES electrodes?

No. Weaver instructs users not to use NuPrep with current-inducing electrodes. Its role in recording-electrode preparation does not make it a preparation gel for every electrical-stimulation setup.

Is NuPrep paraben-free or free of color additives?

No. The published ingredient lists for tubes and cups include methylparaben, propylparaben, and color additives. Review the supplied labeling when an ingredient sensitivity affects selection; do not assume that mild abrasion means suitability for every skin type.

How do I check expiration and remaining shelf life?

Weaver states a three-year product shelf life. That is not a promise of three years remaining when your order arrives. Check the supplied lot and expiration, and contact our team before ordering when your department requires a minimum remaining period. Our NuPrep storage, cleanup, and shelf-life guide covers handling between uses.

Professional ordering and safe use

For a clinical supply order, contact our team with the Weaver reference, number of packages, and required date to confirm availability and ordering requirements. Match the supplied labeling and professional-use requirements before use.

Follow the current manufacturer instructions for NuPrep tubes and cups. Use only on intact skin, avoid eyes and open wounds, and do not over-abrade. Wash off immediately if an abnormal skin reaction develops. Remove preparation materials from electrode sites before MRI as directed.

Match 10-30, 10-61, 10-65, or 10-91, confirm the selected package count, and review the current delivered offer before checkout.
