FluidX 24-Format, 4.0ml External Thread, Jacket, Tri-Coded Glass Tube

FluidX 24-Format, 4.0ml External Thread, Jacket, Tri-Coded Glass Tube; available capped, bulk

• Offers unequaled sample audit traceability, enabling sample tracking and data sharing between multiple users, labs, locations and automation capabilities
• Designed and developed with broad compatibility in mind, the tubes perform without compromise in conjunction with automated barcode reading, capping and sample management systems from FluidX and all other industry-recognized manufacturers
• Provides a lifelong and secure chain of custody for samples in compound libraries and a broad range of chemical stores
• The only automation-friendly, barcoded, glass sample storage tubes available for compound libraries and chemical storage
• Developed to exceed the demands of sample security, management and tracking in modern high-density chemical storage applications
• Each tube carries three unique and permanent high-contrast tube identifiers, 2D code, 1D linear barcode and a human readable number supporting sample sharing between multiple labs, locations and automation capabilities
• Made from chemically-inert glass with low binding and low static properties ideal for dry compound storage, samples in DMSO and samples in caustic solvents
• Manufactured using a two piece assembly process; jacket glass tubes feature a protective jacket made from high-quality virgin polypropylene

Secure sample storage and tracking

• Permanently laser etched, 2D code on base, 1D linear barcode and human readable number on the side, ensuring a permanent link between sample and data
• 2D codes readable without removing tubes from racks
• High contrast 2D codes are more reliably readable in frost or condensation conditions
• 100% quality control, each tube is tested to ensure both readability and uniqueness
• Leak tested to ensure sample security
• External thread tubes provide greater working volume than same height internal thread tubes
• Suitable for sealing with screw caps
• Suitable for cryogenic storage as low as -80°C

Capping options

Screw caps

• For the screw cap seals of glass storage tubes a silicone sealing film is used for added security and reliability
• Customized PTFE inserts available as an option for aggressive chemicals

Racking options

24 format SBS racks

• TwistLock: prevents the automated capping/de-capping; provided as standard, but can be removed
• TubeLock: prevents tubes from falling out, even in lidless racks; useful in manual workflows; activate by applying pressure on the tube top, clicking it into place; tubes can be ordered pre-locked or non-locked
• LidLock: enables racks to withstand a 1m drop test for added sample security
• Automatic rack orientation: a unique 2D code rack identifier readable at the same time as the tube 2D code; for automatic rack orientation and secure sample tracking
• Direct laser etching: a cutout window on the rack sides allow the linear barcode to be read more easily; linear barcodes can be laser etched directly onto racks
