Modern research relies on large, well-annotated biosample collections that can be employed in multiple research projects.

The repetitive task of removing seals from sample plates becomes overwhelming when productivity ramps up and hundreds of seals must be managed at once.

Non-profit research foundations play an important role in evolving medical research and finding cures for devastating diseases. Unlike government-funded agencies and large biopharmaceutical companies, some of these foundations focus on one disease.

Do you know your true working volume?

To protect the sample with the tube, you need to protect the tube from the sample.

Scientists often place cryogenic samples on dry ice during transport. However, research shows putting these samples on dry ice can warm them faster than exposure to room temperature.

Sustainability of biorepositories remains a concern as fail-safe commercial concepts for biorepository activities have not yet been developed. So how can they achieve long-term economic viability?

A sample tube is not just a tube - it is a potential revenue stream. The biological sample inside that tube could be the missing piece for a significant scientific breakthrough.

Bioactive leachables and extractables from plastic components can pose serious risks to the biomaterial stored in them.

Clinical samples are used to diagnose disease, guide treatment, and predict patient outcomes. They’re also important for drug discovery and development, where they can be used to track disease stages, look for biomarkers, and develop diagnostic assays.
