CryoSette frozen tissue storage

The CryoSette frozen tissue storage system is intended for the collection, transport, and storage of frozen tissue. It may also be used in all laboratories to store a wide range of other specimens. The cryosette's strong construction guarantees that tissue shape is effectively preserved.

This 2.5 ml vial has a wide-mouth opening and a screw closure with good integrity. It has a flat bottom and straight sides to facilitate tissue removal. The Cryosette's unique design allows for optimal operation, whether gloves are used or not. The CryoSette retains tissue samples efficiently at -86°C ULT freezers or in liquid nitrogen gas phase in Dewar flasks at -196°C, but not in LN2 liquid phase.

The screw closure and base of the CryoSette are intended not to seize at low temperatures. Even after several freeze/thaw cycles, there is a rapid visible 1 1/4 turn.

The CryoSette has two surfaces for handwriting or labelling: an anterior surface and a bigger space beneath the base. For the latter, a thin cardboard I.D. label and a plastic translucent cover are provided. The anterior writing surface has been modified to improve ink adhesion.
