FluidX 48-Format, 1.9ml External Thread, Next-Gen Jacket, Tri-Coded Cryo Tube; available capped or uncapped, racked or bulk

Offers unequaled sample audit traceability, enabling sample tracking and data sharing between multiple users, labs, locations and automation capabilities
Designed and developed with broad compatibility in mind, the tubes perform without compromise in conjunction with automated barcode reading, capping and sample management systems from FluidX and all other industry-recognized manufacturers
Provides a lifelong and secure chain of custody for samples in biobanks, compound libraries and a broad range of biological and chemical stores, including cryogenic storage
Developed to exceed the demands of sample security, management and tracking in modern high density storage applications
Each tube features a permanent 2D code laser etched in high contrast on the tube base, a permanent 1D linear barcode and human-readable number laser etched in high-contrast on the tube side
All three codes are identical and auditing processes guarantee all three codes match; standard 2D coding option is black on white
Manufactured using an advanced manufacturing process which results in a one piece jacket tube from high quality virgin polypropylene

Capping options

Screw caps

A deforming compression seal more effective than a silicone alternative
A non-silicone seal means the cap can never be over-tightened
Caps and tubes are manufactured from the same material, preventing differential expansion during freeze-thaw cycles
A double-start thread engages in a maximum rotation of 180°, thereby facilitating automation

Racking options

48 format SBS racks

TwistLock: prevents the automated capping/de-capping; provided as standard, but can be removed
TubeLock: prevents tubes from falling out, even in lidless racks; useful in manual workflows; activate by applying pressure on the tube top, clicking it into place; tubes can be ordered pre-locked or non-locked
LidLock: enables racks to withstand a 1m drop test for added sample security
Automatic rack orientation: a unique 2D code rack identifier readable at the same time as the tube 2D code; for automatic rack orientation and secure sample tracking
Direct laser etching: a cutout window on the rack sides allow the linear barcode to be read more easily; linear barcodes can be laser etched directly onto racks
