3.00ml 24-well Format Tube in Rack Dimensions

3.00ml Tubes External Thread Hybrid (24-well format)

The 3.00ml tubes with external thread hybrid guarantee sample traceability and optimize working volume. The transparent part of the tube walls enable easy visual checking of the sample, while the different coding guarantees sample traceability. Samples can be identified with the 2D Data-Matrix, numeric human readable and by written codes on the white surface of the tube. The high contrast 2D and human-readable codes are permanently laser-etched into the white surfaces, so that they can never wear or fall off.

Using externally threaded tubes eliminates the possibility of the sample coming into contact with the screw thread, minimizing chance of cross-contamination while improving sample integrity. The 3.00ml tubes can provide a high working volume with a relatively low tube height.

Our Standards

Product Quality Information

Certified Class 7 clean room

Micronic labware is manufactured and assembled in-house in a NEN-EN-ISO14644-1 Class 7 certified clean room environment (which is comparable to the US Federal Standard 209E Class 10,000).

Virgin material and approvals

For the manufacturing of its long term sample storage labware products Micronic uses solely virgin plastic raw material. The raw materials and auxiliary agents are selected based on the specifications that satisfy the high quality requirements of our products. The materials are FDA approved and comply with the (USA) USP XXII tests, including class VI (Medical approved), and the European Pharmacopoeia-monograph 3.2.2 unless communicated otherwise. Material components used to produce Micronic labware can be traced via the lot number indicated on the packaging.

Extractables

The materials used for Micronic tubes are the result of extensive research. One selection criterion is that the amount of measurable extractables leaching into samples is minimized.

RNase, DNase and endotoxin (pyrogen)

By maintaining the highest possible hygiene level during our production processes, Micronic manufactured labware is free of any detectable RNase or DNase contamination and the endotoxin level of produced and packaged labware is limited to an acceptable minimum (< 0.01 EU/ml). Our products are periodically tested on RNase, DNase and their endotoxin levels by independent expert organizations.

Laser-etched codes

The Micronic 2D Data-Matrix codes and 1D barcodes are produced conform industry standards. The 2D Data-Matrix code (which adheres to the ECC200 standard) and 1D barcode (type 128B) are laser-etched into the code area and are guaranteed unique.

Product quality control

Products produced by Micronic are tested according to AQL inspection level G2 and AQL value 0.4.

CE marking

Micronic Sample Storage tubes are classified as general laboratory products according to leading European Life Science Organizations (GAMBICA, FHI, LABMAS, Laborama, SPECTARIS). More information can be found here.

Decontamination

Upon request, Micronic products can be supplied gamma irradiated or ethylene oxide treated.

IATA

Our products comply with the IATA requirements for the transport of diagnostic specimens (UN packing instruction 602 and 650), assuming that our products are properly used (closed).

If you have any additional questions on the quality and safety of our products, please feel free to contact Micronic at sales@micronic.com.

Our solutions

AUTOMATED AND VISUAL SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION

The Micronic tubes with external thread hybrid uniquely combine automated and visual sample identification. The visual codes allow researchers to quickly identify samples or verify codes during the storage/retrieval process or field research. The transparent parts of the tube wall enable easy visual checking of the sample. The 1D and 2D barcode can be read by automated systems. The bottom code surface of the tubes features a raised edge, which protects the 2D Data-Matrix code against accidental scratches.

Due to the unique injection molding technique used to manufacture the hybrid tubes, the white bottom and side walls cannot be separated from the transparent tube. The high contrast 1D, 2D and human-readable codes are permanently laser-etched into the white surfaces, so that they can never wear or fall off. The triple screw thread of the hybrid tubes gives an excellent closure for long-term sample preservation and storage at ultra-low temperatures. To prevent the screw cap from overturning – manually or mechanically – the cap is designed with a unique lock when sealed. The cap is available in nine different colors.
