CRYOVIAL INTERNAL THREAD WITH SILICONE WASHER SEAL
- The white washer seal fits tightly on top of the tube opening to ensure a leakproof seal
- Made of medical-grade, non-cytotoxic, USP class VI, and FDA compliant polypropylene
- BSE/TSE BPA, phthalate, Latex, and Heavy metal-free
- Sterilized by Gamma radiation and Autoclavable
- Free of RNase, DNase, Pyrogen, and DNA
Designed for safe storage at temperatures as low as -196 °C (but should be used only in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen).
Autoclavable at 121°C. Sterilized by gamma radiation and packaged in unique tamperproof, resealable, safety-lock bags of
100. Skirted tubes have a locking base for easy one-hand operations and only 1 1/4 turn of the cap is sufficient to screw the
cap on the vial. Closure and vial are both made of polypropylene having the same coefficient of expansion, ensuring an equally
secure seal both at room temperature and at low cryogenic temperatures. Tubes have a white marking area, they can be
color-coded with a Cap insert and are compatible with most storage systems.
Only the non-skirted vials can be centrifuged up to 17,000 x g. Warning: Do not use Cryovials for storage in the liquid phase of liquid nitrogen. Such use may cause entrapment of liquefied
nitrogen inside the vial and lead to pressure build-up resulting in possible explosion or biohazard release. Use appropriate
safety procedures when handling and disposing of vials.
