Cryo vials are designed to protect sample quality during vapor-phase liquid nitrogen and ultra-low temperature storage.
Offered sterile, DNase-/RNase-free with a validated sterility assurance level of 10⁻⁶ for sensitive applications.
External-thread closure design minimizes sealing contamination risk during storage and handling including biobanking and tissue storage.
Available with pre-inserted barcodes or 2D Data Matrix inserts for automated sample tracking and inventory control.
Cryogenic vials are available in a range of capacities having a conical well to maximize sample retrieval.

Cryogenic Vials

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperatures are cryogenic vials rated for?

Cryogenic vials are designed to withstand ultra-low temperatures, including storage in vapor-phase liquid nitrogen (-150°C to -196°C), without cracking or compromising sample integrity.

What's the difference between internal and external thread cryogenic vials?

External thread cryo vials reduce contamination risk by keeping the sample away from the sealing surface.

Internal thread vials may offer a narrower cap design.

Do cryogenic vials come in sterile options?

Yes, our cryogenic vials are available in both sterile and non-sterile formats. Sterile vials are ideal for clinical and cell culture applications, while non-sterile vials are suitable for general lab storage.
