High integrity storage of larger sample volumes

Micronic has expanded its range of high quality 4.00 mL sample storage tubes to now include non-coded, alphanumeric and 2D data matrix coded formats.

Offering a working volume of 2.70 mL these tubes provide an ideal solution for storing larger volumes in a wide variety of short-term and long-term sample storage applications. Incorporating an internal thread screw cap with silicon O-ring, Micronic 4.00 mL tubes provide optimal sealing enabling high integrity storage at ultra-low temperatures. Benefiting from a flat bottom, Micronic 4.00 mL tubes also provide an ideal solution for transportation or storage of solid biological samples.

Precision manufactured from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, in a certified Class 7 clean room production environment, Micronic 4.00 mL tubes are available in bulk and in automation-compatible Micronic 48-4 Racks. This 48-well format rack features a laser etched 1D rack barcode on one side and 'Twist-Lock' to prevent tubes from turning during screw capping or decapping.

Micronic 4.00 mL tubes with a 2D Data-Matrix code permanently laser-etched on the bottom of the tube are the storage medium of choice for customers demanding long-term reliable code reading. The 4.00ml alphanumeric tubes are a great option for customers who just need to identify their samples visually. For labs requiring larger volume storage in a top quality tube, Micronic 4.00 mL non-coded tubes provide a cost-competitive solution.

To enhance visual identification of samples - Micronic screw caps for 4.00 mL tubes are available in 12 colours. In addition, Micronic screw caps are designed to be closed with a 'single turn' to ease opening and closure during manual processing.
