Globe Scientific CryoClear™ Cryostorage Vials

Product Description

The Globe Scientific CryoClear™ vials are designed for the cryogenic storage and transport of biological specimens at temperatures as low as -196ºC. The vials feature an innovative screw cap that is co-molded with a layer of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to provide the leak-proof benefits of an O-ring, while eliminating the risk of contamination and sample loss associated with the use of separate O-rings.

Features

• Unique barcode printed on each vial for automated data collection, accurate sample inventory or to conceal the sample’s identity,

• The caps utilize a star shaped cavity to work with automated capping/decapping equipment,

• White writing surface for specimen identification,
• Printed graduations for accurate measurements,
• Vials and caps are autoclavable,
• Screwcaps are molded with a TPE layer to provide a leak-proof seal,
• Produced from medical grade raw materials that will not discolor after re-sterilizing,
• Tamper evident bags, resealable with lot traceable labelling, 
• Self-standing tubes interlock in Globe workstation racks.
