Plastic Laboratory Vials, Cryovials Sterile Polypropylene Cryogenic Vials w/ Silicon Washer Seals and External Threads

• Vials have external threads
• Certified RNase, Dnase, Pyrogen and DNA-free
• Designed for storing biological material, human or animal cells, at temperatures as low as -196°C
• Should be used only in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen
• 1 1/4 turn of the cap is sufficient to seal the vial
• Caps and vials are both manufactured of polypropylene with same coefficient of expansion, which ensures an equally secure seal both at room temperature and at low cryogenic temperatures
• Cap features a long skirt for one hand aseptic methods
• A silicone washer seal between cap and vial ensures a positive leakproof seal at all temperatures
• A specially designed lip inside the cap ensures a leakproof seal even at very low temperatures.
• Compatible with most vial storage systems.
• Provided with a white marking area for sample identification
• Round bottom vial ONLY can be centrifuged, up to 17,000g
• Sterilized by gamma radiation
• Autoclavable
• Packaged in unique tamperproof, resealable, safety-lock bags of 100

The Cryovials polypropylene plastic cryogenic vials are designed for storing biological material, human or animal cells, at temperatures as low as -196°C but should be used only in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen. The cap features a long skirt for one hand aseptic methods, a super fast thread design that allows tightening or removal with a mere 1 1/4 turn, and an inside thread design that will not contribute to possible contamination. But this cap also features an exclusive silicone seal fitted inside of the cap to ensure a positive seal at any temperature, even the lowest of cryogenic temperatures. A specially designed lip inside the cap ensures a leakproof seal even at very low temperatures.

Closures and tubes are both manufactured of polypropylene having the same coefficient of expansion, which further enhances the leakproof qualities of these vials at changing temperatures. Tubes are provided with a white marking area for sample identification.

Cryovials are compatible with most storage systems. Only the round bottom vial can be centrifuged, up to 17,000g. Vials are sterilized by gamma radiation and are packaged in unique tamperproof, resealable, safety-lock bags of 100.

NOTE: Caps are made of natural polypropylene -- colored inserts for caps are NOT included.
