Tubestrip-8 & Tubes for Light Sensitive Samples

Tubestrip-8: Micronic offers an economical, non-coded solution for storing up to 8 samples in a linked row (1.40ml), with the same features and benefits as other Micronic tubes. The Micronic TPE Capband-8 or EVA Capband-8 are available for closure.

Amber tubes for light sensitive samples: The Amber storage tube uniquely safeguards light sensitive samples while still usefully allowing visual checking of enclosed sample volume. The tubes (including code area) are manufactured of the highest-purity Amber Polypropylene.

Tubes for Light Sensitive Samples

Amber tubes are designed from special amber colored material (sample remains visible) to eliminate sample degradation by exposure to light. The wavelength absorbtion or blocking: 190-400nm (ultraviolet). Examples of analytes that are light sensitive and can therefore be perfectly stored in the Amber tubes: Bilirubin, Erythrocyte Protoporphyrin or Carotene.

For specifications of the Amber tubes in 1.40ml, look here.

Coding options

Available Non-coded or with unique laser etched 2D Data-Matrix code (adhere to the ECC200 standard) on the tube bottom, 2D codes also have a human-readable code

100% Quality control

100% quality control on all 2D codes (readability and uniqueness)

Patented technique

Black code surface cannot be separated from the transparent tube due to the patented 2K injection molding technique

RNase/DNase/Pyrogens

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)

Class 7 clean room

Micronic labware is manufactured and assembled in-house in a NEN-EN-ISO14644-1 Class 7 certified clean room environment

"We chose Micronic because of their strong reputation in Biobank sample storage, the good quality of their automation-compatible products and the assured traceability that their laser etched 2D coded tubes provide."

"We use the Micronic sample storage products because the individual barcoded tubes allows us to easily swap tubes from plate to plate. Previously, we would make up a new plate using an aliquot of sample. By instead swapping the tubes, we no longer need to split the sample up when we need to analysis the sample again. As we have over 70,000 DNA samples, it is preferable to keep a sample in a single tube then split over several plates."
