| Description | Cell Freezing Containers for controlled-rate alcohol-free cell freezing provide a highly reproducible -1?/minute freezing rate when placed in a -80? freezer, with no alcohol or fluids required. The Cell Freezing Container technology utilizes a thermo-conductive alloy core and highly-insulative outer Cell Freezing Containers for controlled-rate alcohol-free cell freezing provide a highly reproducible -1?/minute freezing rate when placed in a -80? freezer, with no alcohol or fluids required. The Cell Freezing Container technology utilizes a thermo-conductive alloy core and highly-insulative outer material to control the rate of heat removal to provide reproducible cell cryopreservation. The insulative outer housing and thermo-conductive solid state core ensure consistent heat removal to all vials throughout the freezing period. Cell Freezing Containers can replace isopropanol-based freezing containers such as Mr. Frosty by ThermoFisher Scientific and others, which can consume up to 12l per year of IPA and cost hundreds of dollars per unit per year to maintain. - Cost saving as no alcohol or fluids required
- Consistent heat removal through freezing period
- Unbreakable, easy and safe to open when frozen
- Easy and fast vial identification and removal
- Quick reuse time: the containers are ready to use again after 5 minutes
- For use with stem cells, primary cells and cell lines

Read More | 4titude 96 Individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat optical bottom, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, black rigid polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 Well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted 4titude 96 Individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat optical bottom, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, black rigid polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 Well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted separately into the plate frame, allowing for selection and removal of individual tubes from the plate. Each tube clicks into place in the frame ensuring tubes are secure once inserted. The Individual Access range includes PCR plates with optically clear flat bottom wells for microscopy applications. The Individual Access 96 Well Skirted Optical Bottom PCR Plates (next to their counterpart within our FrameStar® range, 4ti-0970) are currently unique in the market, being suitable for use in both microscopy and PCR, for example, when single cell sorting is followed by molecular biology applications such as qPCR and sequencing. Due to their flat bottoms and stackability, these plates are well suited for small sample volume storage (such as compound libraries), with no risk of damaging the seal of the plate below. Additionally, the small well volume enables excellent sample recovery. The rigid polycarbonate skirt of this design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR. Together with the SBS footprint, this makes the plate suitable for use with robotic systems, ideal for both small and high throughput labs. Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to. The frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application. Key Features: - Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
- Individually removable from the rigid frame, while the rest of the tubes can remain in storage, reducing freeze-thawing of the whole plate
- Thin walled tubes are made from PP for optimal results in (q)PCR whilst also being suitable for storage and incubation
- <100μl working volume, <180μl total well capacity
- Rigid polycarbonate frame provides mechanical stability of the plate
- Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
- Suitable for microscopy and small volume sample storage
- Ideal for use with robotic systems
- Fewer transfer steps as the same tube can be used for microscopy, (q)PCR and storage
- Each tube can still be separated after sealing
- Each tube can be individually heat sealed using the Individual Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong, such as the contents of each tube is left secure from cross contamination and evaporation for storage and transfer
- Also available as a FrameStar plate (4ti-0970) with fixed wells
- Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to; frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application
- We also offer customization of the Individual Access Plates such as color coding of the individual wells; please contact an expert for details
- Available barcoded upon request
- The plate can be sealed in one step using Individual Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong (4ti-05381/RA) on the Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer (using the 59-2005 Individual Access adapter), resulting in individually sealed tubes with pierceable seals to allow for sample access
