Polycarbonate Sample Cryobox

Product Name Polycarbonate Sample Cryobox
Product Image polycarbonate sample cryobox for cryogenic tubes
Product Overview The Polycarbonate Sample Cryobox is a durable laboratory storage box designed for organized short- and long-term storage of cryogenic sample tubes. The reference configuration uses a 13 × 13 divider to accommodate up to 169 compatible 1 mL cryogenic tubes within a standard-size freezer box.

Its rigid polycarbonate construction offers better moisture resistance and durability than conventional cardboard storage boxes, while the clear lid allows quick visual inspection of tube positions. A printed grid supports systematic sample identification and retrieval.

The cryobox is suitable for veterinary diagnostic laboratories, livestock breeding centers, animal disease surveillance programs, research facilities and commercial farm laboratories that manage blood, serum, plasma, tissue, DNA or other preserved biological samples.
Key Features
  • Durable polycarbonate construction for laboratory and cryogenic storage applications.
  • 13 × 13 internal divider provides up to 169 individual tube positions.
  • Designed for compatible 1 mL cryogenic storage tubes.
  • Standard external dimensions allow use with many conventional freezer rack systems.
  • Clear lid provides convenient visual access to sample positions.
  • Printed grid supports organized sample identification and inventory management.
  • Keyed lid design helps reduce accidental lid misalignment.
  • Suitable for mechanical freezer and vapor-phase liquid nitrogen storage.
  • All-plastic construction resists moisture associated with cold-storage environments.
  • Reusable design supports long-term laboratory sample management.
Structural Components
  • Polycarbonate Box Body: Provides a rigid and break-resistant enclosure for stored samples.
  • Clear Lid: Allows visual inspection of tube locations without fully opening the box.
  • 13 × 13 Divider: Separates individual storage positions and holds up to 169 compatible tubes.
  • Printed Position Grid: Helps laboratory personnel identify and document individual sample locations.
  • Keyed Lid Interface: Helps maintain consistent lid orientation with the sample position grid.
Structural Principle The cryobox organizes individual cryogenic tubes within a fixed matrix. Each tube is placed into a designated compartment of the 13 × 13 divider, allowing samples to be assigned a unique row-and-column position.

The box is then placed inside a compatible freezer rack. The standard box footprint allows laboratories to increase sample density without requiring a completely different freezer storage system.

The transparent lid and printed grid allow technicians to confirm tube positions before retrieval, helping reduce unnecessary handling and exposure of stored samples to warmer temperatures.

Use & Maintenance Confirm that the cryogenic tubes are compatible with the divider dimensions before loading the box. Assign each sample a defined grid position and maintain the corresponding inventory record in the laboratory database or sample log.

Place tubes vertically into the divider and ensure that caps are completely closed before cold storage. Close the cryobox lid securely and maintain the correct lid orientation so that grid references remain consistent.

Insert the loaded box into a compatible freezer rack and avoid overfilling or forcing tubes into undersized compartments. When retrieving specimens, minimize the time that the box remains outside the controlled storage environment.

The polycarbonate box can be cleaned and decontaminated according to laboratory procedures. When autoclaving is required, follow the validated temperature and cycle requirements for the specific box configuration.

Appropriate cryogenic personal protective equipment should always be used when handling boxes stored in ultra-low-temperature freezers or liquid nitrogen systems.
Product FAQ How many tubes can the reference cryobox hold?
The reference 13 × 13 configuration holds up to 169 compatible 1 mL cryogenic storage tubes.

What material is the cryobox made from?
The reference box is manufactured from durable polycarbonate and uses a clear lid for convenient sample viewing.

Can the cryobox be used in a liquid nitrogen system?
Yes. The referenced configuration is suitable for vapor-phase liquid nitrogen storage as well as mechanical freezer storage.

Can it fit standard freezer racks?
Yes. The reference box uses a standard cryobox footprint and is designed to fit compatible standard laboratory freezer racks.

Why is a 13 × 13 divider useful?
It increases storage density to 169 positions while maintaining organized row-and-column sample identification.

Can it be used for veterinary samples?
Yes. It is suitable for compatible tubes containing blood, serum, plasma, tissue, DNA and other veterinary or livestock research specimens.
