2 mL Cryovial Storage Boxes – Cryogenic Freezer Organization
2 mL Cryovial Storage Boxes provide a structured, space-saving, and ultra-low-temperature-resistant solution for archiving biological samples in deep freezers and cryogenic environments. Engineered to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations from -196°C to +121°C, these storage boxes maintain structural integrity without warping, cracking, or becoming brittle. Molded with high-contrast, permanent alphanumeric grid markings on the internal dividers and lid, they allow rapid sample identification and efficient inventory retrieval. The vented base and lid design ensure rapid cold air circulation and easy drainage during thawing.
Key Applications:
-
Ultra-Low Temperature Sample Archiving: Ideal for long-term storage of cell lines, serum, plasma, genetic samples, and viral strains inside -80°C deep freezers and liquid nitrogen vapor phase systems.
-
Biobank & Clinical Sample Management: Essential for pathology laboratories, clinical research facilities, and medical colleges across Pakistan to systematically organize bio-repository stocks.
-
Transport & Benchtop Storage: Keeps delicate frozen vials upright and secure during benchtop handling, sample preparation, or transport across laboratories.
