Product Details
Cryogenic vials are the ideal choice for long-term storage of samples in the harshest environments. These thick-walled tubes are outfitted with silicone O-rings that allow them to maintain their seal at temperatures as low as -196°C. Sterilized by gamma irradiation, MTC Bio cryogenic vials are designed to hold, store, and preserve biological materials for days, weeks, years, or decades. The self-standing Starfoot base mates perfectly with an included rack so that one hand is all that is needed to install and remove caps. Each vial has externally threaded caps with a silicone O-ring, holds 5 ml, is sterile, features printed graduations and a marking area, and includes a self-standing Starfoot design. A 50-place locking rack is included with each case, which contains 10 resealable bags of 50 tubes each. Key features include the ability to withstand temperatures as low as -196°C, a leakproof silicone O-ring, and compatibility with LN2 gas phase only; these vials are not suitable for liquid phase storage.
