Cryo Vials

Sterile cryogenic tubes for reliable sample identification and storage
Cryo Vials

Product description

AHN® maxxLine® Cryo Vials are designed for freezing and storing biological samples, reagents and other laboratory materials. The range includes sterile, clear Cryo Vials with volumes from 0.5 to 5.0 mL. The different capacities support both small-volume sample storage and applications requiring additional storage capacity.

The Cryo Vials have a straight, slim design and feature an external thread. This preserves a smooth internal surface and facilitates sample aspiration. The straight body fits commonly used cryogenic storage boxes with 9 × 9 or 10 × 10 dividers.

Reliable closure

The external thread and integrated lip seal are designed to provide a reliable closure. This helps reduce the risk of leakage and contamination during sample processing and storage.

The cap can be opened and closed with half a turn. This quick-seal design supports comfortable one-handed operation, for example when the Cryo Vial is positioned in a suitable holder or cryogenic storage box during pipetting.

Temperature resistant

AHN® maxxLine® Cryo Vials withstand temperatures ranging from -196 to 121 °C. Use at -196 °C is intended exclusively for storage in the vapour phase of liquid nitrogen. The Cryo Vials are not intended for immersion in liquid nitrogen.

The Cryo Vials can be autoclaved at 121 °C. The supplied sterile Cryo Vials are sterilised by beta irradiation.

Stable star-shaped base

The star-shaped base provides stability while filling and closing the Cryo Vials. Its design supports one-handed operation and helps prevent the tube from rotating during sample processing.

The straight body and compact base support efficient use of available space in cryogenic storage boxes and freezers.

Graduations and writing area

The 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 and 5.0 mL Cryo Vials feature clear graduation marks and a large writing area. This supports rapid volume checks and clear sample identification.

The 0.5 mL version is supplied without printing. Its smaller format is suitable for storing small sample volumes.

Coloured cap inserts

Cap inserts are available in blue, green, red, white and yellow for additional sample identification. Colour coding makes it possible to distinguish samples, research groups, storage conditions or workflows visually.

The cap inserts are available separately by colour and as an assortment containing all five colours.
