Thermo Scientific Abgene 2D Barcoded 2 ml Screw Cap storage tubes combine a traditional storage format with the added benefits of a secure sample tracking and a high density, microplate footprint rack for easier sample handling. Unlike other plastic or cardboard storage boxes, the stackable, secure rack also ensures your freezer stays organized for faster sample retrieval.
These Abgene 2D barcoded 2 ml tubes are ideal for sample collection and storage of samples including DNA, blood, cell lines and tissue samples. A permanent 2D barcode is encapsulated onto the base of each tube to ensure safe, long term identification and tracking of samples. Complementary Thermo Scientific 2D barcode readers allow simple decoding and integration of 2D barcodes into spreadsheets, databases and existing tracking systems.
Product Detail

2D barcode is fully encapsulated behind an optically clear window to protect it against even the harshest conditions
Tubes are available in bulk or racked
V-shaped internal well design reduces dead volume and improves sample recovery
6x8 microplate format racks ensure compact, efficient storage and efficient freezer organization
Caps feature low temperature resistant O-rings for secure, reliable sealing at cold temperatures
Suitable for storage in vapor phase liquid nitrogen
Alphanumeric grid-referencing on rack and lid for simplified identification
Open bottom rack design for more efficient freezing and thawing
Secure Tracking A 2D barcode is encapsulated onto the base of every Thermo Scientific Abgene 2D barcoded 2 ml screw cap storage tube to securely identify and track samples, even in the harshest of laboratory conditions. Instantly decode each tube's 2D barcode with the Thermo Scientific line of 2D barcode readers; scan the tube into any application or database, or integrate via various data export options-the choice is yours. Once sample data is stored, just scan the tube using the database "find" feature to instantly access sample information and identify the contents of each storage tube.
Superior Design Save precious freezer space with an innovative, stackable, microplate-footprint rack of 48 tubes with a familiar 2 ml cryopreservation format. Grid referenced lids clearly display the storage tube location and externally threaded tubes prevent contamination. Additionally, the open rack bottom allows all barcodes to be read at once, saving time versus individual tube handling and barcode reading.
Superior Sample Protection Each screw cap features an O-ring designed for long term, low temperature conditions, ensuring your valuable samples remain intact.
Stringent Quality Control Every 2D barcoded storage tube is scanned to ensure readability and each code is checked against a full database of all previously assigned 2D codes to ensure zero duplicates across the entire line of Abgene 2D barcoded storage tubes. In addition, each lot of storage tubes is leak tested to ensure the integrity and security of samples.
