Enhance the efficiency and throughput of your sample storage workflow with the automation-friendly Thermo Scientific™ Nunc™ 1.8 mL Externally-threaded Universal Tubes. The latch rack features an ANSI SBS footprint that is compatible with automation platforms for liquid handling and sample storage. Tubes are available racked or in bulk, with options for 2D barcodes or non-coded versions, and empty racks can also be purchased.
These tubes and racks are suitable for both low- and high-throughput applications. They include graduations and a white patch for manual marking and can fit into traditional cryostorage boxes designed for 10x10 arrays. The external threads help minimize contamination, and they are compatible with the Universal Latch Rack for automation.
The innovative Universal Cap design features a single-piece construction with a molded-in gasket, which prevents over-tightening by hand or automated capping tools. The thermoplastic elastomer gasket material is suitable for storage at room temperature and down to the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen.
Each tube has a permanently bonded, unique 2D barcode laser-etched onto the base for secure sample identification and tracking. 2D barcode readers can instantly scan each tube's barcode, allowing for easy registration in any application or database, with multiple export options. Users can scan the tube to access sample information and identify its contents. The 374502NOV model features a 1D (linear) barcode and human-readable text on the side that matches the 2D barcode on the bottom of the tube.
Stringent quality control measures ensure that every 2D barcoded storage tube is scanned for readability, with barcodes checked against a database of previously assigned codes to prevent duplicates. Each tube meets a Sterility Assurance Level of 106 and is made from class VI medical-grade resins.
