The 3.00ml tubes with external thread hybrid guarantee sample traceability, optimize working volume and increase overall sample storage efficiency. The transparent part of the tube walls enable easy visual checking of the sample, while the 4 coding concepts guarantee sample traceability. The tubes are compatible with ANSI / SLAS format racks, standard cryo boxes, automated stores and liquid handlers.
Externally threaded tubes also allow for a higher volume of material to be stored inside, which means that sample tubes can hold more while occupying the same amount of storage space. The optimized working volume of the tubes increase the storage capacity of manual freezers and automated stores.
Micronic operates corporate integrated Quality Management System (QMS) that is certified to ISO 9001:2015.
Reducing our impact on the environment is an integral part of our continuous improvement efforts. The environmental policy of Micronic is determined by our headquarters in the Netherlands, which is certified to ISO 14001:2015.
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).
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.
The materials used for Micronic tubes are the result of extensive research. One selection criteria is that no measurable amount of extractables should leach into samples.
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.
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.
Products produced by Micronic are tested according to AQL inspection level G2 and AQL value 0.4.
Micronic labware products are developed and manufactured in compliance with the European Directive 98/79/EC for In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices, Annex III.
Upon request, Micronic products can be supplied gamma irradiated or ethylene oxide treated.
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.
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.
