1.2 ml freestanding cryotubes (100 pcs.)

Designed for the safe storage of biological material and human or animal cells at extremely low temperatures, Alpha features three series of CE-marked cryogenic storage vials.
All products in this range are certified free from RNase, DNase, pyrogens, and DNA. Alpha Laboratories cryovials are available in either self-standing or round-bottomed configurations. All types feature an internal rounded base for easy sample retrieval.

Robust vial and closure – a special grade of polypropylene is used to manufacture all our vials, selected for its consistent strength. This allows both the vial and cap to withstand the harsh temperature of liquid nitrogen vapour phase at -196 °C, and the thick wall makes the vial virtually unbreakable.
Please note they are not suitable for use in the liquid phase.
Secure seal – cap and tube are made from the same material, ensuring they shrink and expand at the same rate with changes in temperature, providing an equally secure seal at both room temperature and low cryogenic temperatures.
Quick open/close – 1 ¼ turns are sufficient to securely seal the cap. This is important when large numbers of vials are used, saving time and reducing the risk of the cap not being securely closed.
Easy one-handed operation – all self-standing vials, when used with a workstation (LW3400B or LW3400R), allow vials to be unscrewed with one hand. Vertical ribs facilitate cap removal.
Clear graduations – at 100 µl intervals to aid in reading your sample volume.

Large white marking area – for sample identification and labelling.
Tubes can be colour-coded with a cap insert (LW3339 range) and are compatible with most storage systems. Cap inserts are available in 11 different colours. Cap inserts are not compatible with LW3439.
Only round-bottomed vials can be centrifuged at up to 17,000 g.
Sterile – all vials are gamma irradiated to ensure absolute sterility.
Certified free from RNase, DNase, pyrogens, human DNA, and metals.
Supplied in tamper-evident, re-sealable bags – clean and sterile.


Ultimate Security Range
External thread with flange/washer combination
Each Ultimate Security vial features a silicone washer seal compressed on all four sides, plus an internal flange that secures the seal and reduces the risk of contamination to the cap. This unique combination offers the highest level of security for your most valuable samples.
