Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ ScrewTop Tri-coded Tubes

Description

Securely store precious samples at low temperatures, including vapor phase Liquid Nitrogen with Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ 500μl and 1.0mL ScrewTop Tubes. Tubes are molded from medical grade resins and feature a permanent, high contrast 2D,1D linear and human readable barcode. These tubes can be ordered to come in racks (barcoded or non-barcoded) or may be purchased in bulk. The tri-coded tubes can be purchased sterile or non-sterile. We also offer tubes with white patch only if your work does not require the 1D linear and human readable code. The 2D screwtop tubes meet a range of manual and automated long term storage needs; barcoded racks make it easy to track the rack as well. Use in combination with Thermo Scientific barcode readers, arrayers and capping equipment.

Dependable Sample Protection

Secure Tracking

• Permanent, unique 2D barcode is laser-etched on the bottom of each tube
• 2D barcode allows you to scan and decode tubes at once without removing them from the rack, and allows data to be associated with each tube
