Warning:
Do not use CryoTubes in the liquid phase of liquid nitrogen unless correctly sealed in Nunc CryoFlex™ Tubing (Cat. No. 4.009 142). Improper use may cause liquified nitrogen to be trapped inside the vial and lead to pressure build-up, resulting in possible explosion or biohazard release.

For colour coding. Fit for all sizes.

The Matrix™ SepraSeal sealing mats are suitable for securely sealing sample tubes with or without 2D code. For sample access, the caps can be removed with the practical cap removal tool (Cat.-No. 6.254 390, please order seperately) or pierced once. The pre-slit versions are suitable for multiple piercing. The self-sealing function of the pre-slitted elastomer maintains sample integrity.

• For storage down to -20 °C
• Individual closure or closure of 96 sample tubes simultaneously possible
• Good chemical resistance
• Low evaporation rate

With the Matrix™ DuraSeal sealing mat (Cat.-No. 4.658 312), sample tubes are permanently sealed. The sealing mat is pre-slit for sample access and has a v-shaped design. The special elastomer ensures that the integrity of the sample is maintained. Suitable for sample storage down to -80 °C.

Manufactured from polycarbonate with high mechanical strength and high temperature resistance between -196 to +121°C. Uniquely designed to carry 81 cryo tubes in 9 x 9 array "Hedgehog" designed tube compartments holds the tube in their position firmly. Unique design with vent and drainage holes guarantees best, efficient air circulation. Forward slope base ensures quick visual orientation. Easily stackable for reducing storage space. Hinged lid with built-in stop allows easy one-handed access to tubes. Clear box lid enables easy identification of box content and protects the tubes from dust, moisture and other environmental effects. Alphanumerical index both on tube rows and the lid enables easy identification of tube positions. Box is supplied together with a disposable forceps, made from ABS, with fine end for easy handling and fast removal of tubes.

Using the Dräger activated charcoal tubes or silica gel tubes, hazardous substances in the air are collected using a suitable medium via adsorption or chemisorption. The sample is then analysed in the laboratory by means of various analytical methods such as gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), UV-VIS photometry, or IR spectroscopy.

For storage in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen. Screw cap tubes Matrix™ with 2D code for sample storage up to gas phase of liquid nitrogen. SBS format with 8 x 12 grid allows both manual and automated storage. The 2D screw cap tubes can be picked and sorted by a robot.

Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ 2D Barcoded Storage Tubes allow robust storage and tracking of sample volumes ranging from 0.2 ml to 1.4 ml in 96-format. Tubes are molded from medical grade resins and the proprietary barcoding process produces a permanent, high contrast 2D barcode, offering maximum reliability and traceability of compound, biological, and genomic samples.

Secure Tracking

• A permanently-bonded, unique 2D barcode is laser-etched onto the base of every Matrix 2D barcoded storage tube
• A range of VisionMate 2D barcode readers is available to meet your application and throughput needs
• Once sample data is stored, just scan the tube using the database Find feature to instantly access sample information and identify the contents of each storage tube

Superior Storage Rack Design

• Unlike traditional storage tubes or blocks, Matrix 96-format 2D barcoded storage tubes are available in proprietary, stackable, microplate footprint Latch Racks to save precious space in your freezer, refrigerator, compound store or on the bench top
• The latch rack design enables manual multichannel pipette access to 2D tubes and eliminates contamination risk with lid design that does not contact the benchtop
• The latch rack lid can be lifted robotically for 2D tube access with automated equipment and high-throughput applications

Stringent Quality Control

• Every 2D barcoded storage tube is scanned to guarantee readability and each code is checked against a full database of all previously assigned 2D codes to ensure zero duplicates across the entire line of Matrix 2D barcoded storage tubes
• Every storage tube is leak tested to ensure the integrity and security of samples

Storage tracking solutions for any laboratory.
Available with a range of sealing options including solid and pre-slit Duraseals and Sepraseals to meet your individual storage requirements.
