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. Closure and vials are both manufactured of polypropylene with the same coefficient of expansion, which ensures an equally secure seal both at room temperature and at low cryogenic temperatures. The cap also features an exclusive silicone washer fitted inside the cap to ensure a positive seal at any temperature.
Vials have a white marking area which can be color coded by using a CAPINSERT™ (Series CLS-4767) and 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, tamper-proof, re-sealable safety-lock bags of 100 pieces. Autoclavable.
