Description

A robust solution for solid or liquid sample storage. Available in configurations that meet your tracking and packaging requirements, Thermo Scientific™ Nunc™ Low-Profile 5.0mL Externally-Threaded Universal Tubes feature 2D barcodes, graduations, a white patch for labeling, and a wide mouth design for easy addition and extraction of sample material. The externally-threaded design minimizes contamination risk in manual handling procedures. The tubes and rack are rated for storage down to vapor phase liquid nitrogen temperatures.

Flexible Tube Design

• Wide mouth provides easy access using forceps for adding approximately three 1mm sections of tissue, plant material or other solid sample for storage
• Overall tube height of less than 50mm and U-bottom shape allows convenient access with standard length pipette tips when used for liquid storage
• Available with or without a 2D barcode
• Include printed graduations and white writable surface for manual sample identification
• Can be purchased in universal style latch rack or bulk to meet your sample handling requirements

• Screw top cap features single piece construction with integrated polypropylene gasket — cannot be over-tightened by hand
• Gasketed cap and tube are compatible with storage at room temperature through the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen

• Permanently-bonded unique 2D barcode is laser-etched on base of tube to securely identify and track samples
• Thermo Scientific 2D barcode reader instantly decodes each tubes barcode, transferring tube information into your application or database
• Tubes include white writable space for sample information in addition to, or instead of using 2D barcodes

• 2D-barcoded storage tubes are scanned after manufacturing to ensure readability
• Barcodes are checked against database of previously assigned codes to prevent duplicates
• Tubes are leak tested to ensure sample integrity and security
