cryotubes for liquid nitrogen
Cryotubes for liquid nitrogen represent essential laboratory equipment designed for the safe storage and preservation of biological samples at ultra-low temperatures. These specialized containers are engineered with high-quality materials, typically medical-grade polypropylene, ensuring durability and resistance to extreme cold conditions down to -196°C. The tubes feature a secure screw cap system with silicone gaskets that creates an airtight seal, preventing sample contamination and nitrogen leakage. Available in various sizes ranging from 1mL to 5mL, these cryotubes incorporate external threading and internal round bottoms to maximize sample recovery and minimize cell adhesion. They are equipped with graduation marks for accurate volume measurement and frosted writing surfaces for sample identification. The tubes' design includes a specialized star-foot base that provides stability during storage in liquid nitrogen containers and prevents floating. Advanced manufacturing processes ensure that each tube maintains its structural integrity during rapid temperature changes, making them ideal for long-term storage of cell lines, tissue samples, DNA/RNA, blood components, and other biological materials. The tubes are sterile, DNase/RNase-free, and non-pyrogenic, meeting strict laboratory standards for research and clinical applications.
