Tri-Coded Cryogenic Tubes are engineered for optimal sample integrity and traceability in biobanking, genomics, and long-term cryostorage. Featuring a unique three-code system (2D base code, 1D side barcode, and rack barcode), each tube ensures unmatched audit accuracy and sample security. Constructed from ultra-durable, freeze-thaw stable materials, they’re compatible with SBS-format racks for seamless automation and high-throughput workflows.
Features & Benefits:
- Tri-coded system: 2D barcode (base), 1D linear barcode (side), and 1D rack barcode for unmatched traceability
- Laser-etched codes: Scratch-resistant, easy-to-read, permanently marked
- Manufactured in GMP 8 cleanrooms, ISO 9001 & ISO 13485 certified
- Withstands extreme storage temperatures from -196°C to 120°C
- RNase / DNase and pyrogen-free, gamma sterilizable
- Cap and tube made from the same material to minimize expansion during freeze-thaw cycles
- Non-silicone seal and unique thread design prevent over-tightening and leakage
- External thread design increases working volume
- Multi-color caps available for color-coding samples (Red, Green, Blue, Orange, Transparent)
- Direct rack-based code reading in SBS format
