These Cryovials 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 easy one-hand aseptic technique, a super fast thread design allowing with only 1-1/4 turn, and a thread design that will not contribute to possible contamination. This cap also features an exclusive silicone seal fitted inside of the cap to ensure a positive seal at any temperature, even at the lowest of cryogenic temperatures. A specially designed lip inside the cap ensures a leak-proof seal for the Cryovial even at very low temperatures.
The closures and vials are both manufactured of polypropylene having the same coefficient of expansion, which further enhances the leak-proof qualities of these vials at changing temperatures. Vials are provided with a white marking area for sample identification and can be color coded by using a CAPINSERT™ (Series CLS-4767). However, please note that no CAPINSERT™ is available for model CLS-4762-10A.
The Cryovial is 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, tamper-proof, re-sealable safety-lock bags of 100 pieces except for the CLS-4762-10A which is packed in bags of 50 pieces. Autoclavable.
