Micronic, one of the leaders in innovative sample storage and automation solutions, has announced the release of the new 0.30ml, 0.75ml and 1.40ml Non-Coded Tubes with External Thread in 96-well format.

The Micronic Non-coded Tubes provide an affordable way to improve sample preparation, processing, screening and logistics. Many laboratories use the non-coded tubes for testing, intermediate processes such as homogenizing samples using beads or short-term storage. Moreover, the polypropylene tubes offer reliable options for maintaining the integrity of tube contents at temperature down to vapor phase LN2, allowing to store samples confidently. The internal V-shape of the tubes provides the lowest possible dead volume and maximum recovery of scarce samples.

Due to thick tube walls, the tube has a sturdy design and superb properties for ultra-low temperature storage. Using externally threaded storage tubes eliminates the possibility of the sample coming into contact with the screw thread, minimizing chance of cross-contamination while improving sample integrity. A triple start thread offers excellent closure to ensure safe sample preservation and storage. These sample tubes can also hold a higher (net) volume of material while occupying the same amount of storage space, maximizing storage volume.

The Micronic 0.30ml, 0.75ml and 1.40ml Non-coded Tubes are available in bulk or in the Micronic 96-well format Ultra-Low Temperature Rack. The automation-friendly rack is absolutely traceable courtesy of the laser-etched alphanumeric visual located on top of the racks, and a unique laser-etched 1D barcode on the side of the racks. An excellent combination of a cost-effective solution with the rack traceability without compromising sample quality and safety.

Drawing upon proprietary Micronic technology, the automated Screw Cap Recapper CS700, semi-automatic handheld Screw Cap Recapper CS500 or manual Screw Cap Recapper CS100 offer users the ability to cap, decap or recap externally thread tubes with Screw Caps.
