96 Format Sample Storage Tubes Introduction FluidX Sample Storage Tubes in 96 Format FluidX offer a complete and unique range of sample storage tubes in 96 format that include space-saving external thread designs, and our very own tri-labelled Jacket Tubes - all ideal for cryogenic storage. External Thread Cryo Tubes Save Space and Reduce Cost. Thread is on the outside of the tube so there is no loss in working volume when a cap is added. e.g. 0.3ml external thread tubes require a third less freezer storage space than standard 0.5ml tubes and are contained within a low profile 96 format rack with a heightof just 22mm. Excellent Seal Performance No silicone seal is used, the cap cannot be overtightened. External thread screw cap tubes use a deforming compression seal and provide a more effective seal than silicone alternative. Cap and tube are manufactured from the same polypropylene homopolymer (resin) to prevent differential expansion during freeze-thaw cycles. Note: Homopolymer provides a lower binding and wider temperature tolerance than standard polypropylene. FluidX external thread caps feature a double start thread. The thread is fully engaged after a maximum rotation of 180 (rather than 360 for internal thread) making the cap easier to use especially in automated environments. Using a compression seal, rather than an O ring, results in a tighter seal with a more consistent torque. Ideal for ultra-cold storing of DNA and RNA samples (-196 C). Choice of coding option. Available with either 2D barcode, alphanumeric markings or non-coded. Choose from: 0.3ml Jacket Tube with external thread. Tri-labelled. 0.7ml Jacket Tube with external thread.

Jacket Tubes Both external and internal thread cryo tubes are available with tri-labelled jacket. Jacket features a 2D barcode on base, and linear barcode and human readable ID on side for easy reading and optimised sample security. Internal Thread Cryo Tubes with 2D Barcode FluidX internal thread cryo tubes are suitable for use with either screw caps or TPE septum caps. Ideal for ultra-cold storing of DNA and RNA samples, to -196 C (when used with screw cap). Choice of Coding Option. Available with either 2D barcode, alphanumeric markings or non-coded.

96 Format Sample Storage Tubes Introduction Additional Tube Features TwistLock This feature prevents tubes rotating within the rack so enables automated capping and decapping of screw caps. TwistLock is provided as standard, however some racks are available without TwistLock for use on specific automated systems. LidLock Racks fitted with our LidLock latch are designed to withstand drop test for added sample security. TubeLock offers dual-function capability. Racks with the TubeLock feature offer two stable tube positions, either locked or non-locked. TubeLock is activated by applying pressure to tube top, clicks the tube into place. Racked tubes can be ordered either pre-locked or non-locked. Ideal for Cold Storage Temperature range -196 C (with screw cap) to 110 C. Suitable for cryogenic storage, but not for submersion in liquid phase Nitrogen. Can be autoclaved. Automation Friendly TubeLock activated tubes locked into position TubeLock not activated, tubes unlocked Compatible with the XSD-96 range of tube capper/decappers to automat- ically remove and recap screw caps from racked tubes. TwistLock feature prevents tubes rotating within the rack during capping or decapping. Excellent Sealing Ability Tubes work equally well with either TPE septum caps or screw caps. Improved internal thread provides a more secure seal when using screw caps. Superior Datamatrix Code Quality Our 2D barcoded tubes are now easier to read, even in harsh conditions or when damaged. Black on white 2D Datamatrix barcode with improved white quiet zone. FluidX offer one of the few ranges that adheres fully to the ECC200 standard. Barcode is generated using latest and most sophisticated error correction methods. New generation, high quality, permanent laser etching system provides sharper detail. 100% QC. Every tube is checked to ensure they meet our exacting standards for readability. FluidX 2D Barcode Other Original Thread Automatic Rack Orientation FluidX racks can be supplied with a unique 2D barcode identifier. This can be read at the same time as the tube 2D barcode when using a FluidX whole rack reader to provide automatic rack orientation and more secure sample tracking. Improved thread, now two turns Direct Laser Etching Of Racks Cutout windows on the rack sides allow the linear barcode to be read more easily. Linear barcodes can be laser etched directly onto the rack. 10 www.fluidx.eu Tel +44(0) 1625 861 614 info@fluidx.eu

96 Format Sample Storage Tubes Introduction Choice of Coding Options FluidX sample storage tubes with internal thread are available with a choice of coding options, highlighted below. Please note that external thread tubes are only supplied with a 2D barcode on the base, or as a tri-labelled Jacket Tube. Non-Coded (Naked) Tubes Alphanumeric Coded Tubes 2D Barcoded (Black on White) 2D Barcoded (White on Black) Simply come as they are.

96 Format Sample Storage Tubes External Thread Cryo Tubes Jacket Tubes 0.3ml Jacket Tube with External Thread Uses a third less freezer space than standard 0.5ml storage tubes. Ideal for storing DNA and RNA (between 50µl to 200µl). Space Saving FluidX 0.3ml tubes are stored in a low profile 96 well format rack with a height of just 22mm. The only 96 well format tube available with external thread screw cap to maximise the internal volume but keep tube height to a minimum. High Quality Seal No silicone seal is used which eliminates the risk of overtightening, a deforming compression seal is used instead which achieves a more effective seal. Cap and tube are made from the same material to prevent differential expansion during freeze-thaw cycles.

Capping Systems for FluidX Sample Storage Tubes Screw Caps Reduce Sample Loss A significant amount of liquid can become trapped within a standard screw cap resulting in the loss of valuable sample material. The hollow area on the cap catches the sample and surface tension then makes removal difficult. Studies demonstrate that our new screw-cap design significantly reduces this effect by offering a much lower liquid retention than many existing caps while maintaining seal quality. Reduced Hollow Polypropylene cap with a silicon O ring for optimal seal quality. Compatible with all FluidX 96-format tubes with screw top. High chemical resistance. Now available in a choice of ten colours to aid identification. Autoclavable. Temperature range -196 C to +120 C. Do not use in liquid phase Nitrogen.

Capping Systems for FluidX Sample Storage Tubes SBS Cap Carrier SBS format screw-cap carrier to enable un-capped 96 format tubes to be capped. Improve Process Efficiency Pre-capped tubes (with screw caps) need to be decapped before use. The FluidX Cap Carrier enables uncapped tubes to be used immediately and then capped using an automated screw-cap capper / decapper, leading to improved process efficiency and allows batch filling of tubes prior to capping. When used manually, by transferring caps from the carrier to the tube using a single tube transfer device, the operation also becomes faster and the risk of contamination is reduced as cap handling is eliminated. Pre-Filled with Low Retention Screw Caps FluidX Cap Carriers are pre-filled with FluidX low retention screw cap that can reduce sample loss by up to 90% compared with standard caps. 67-53111-10 68-53111-10 66-9951 67-53111-50 68-53111-50 New SBS Cap Carrier (Internal thread caps).

Sterilisation Services At FluidX we understand how important it is to provide labware in a perfect condition and ideally suited for your research. That s why we offer three alternative methods of providing contamination free products. Production Sterile Prevention is better than cure. That s why we manufacture all of our storage products in a class 100,000 clean room environment. To gain access to this area everyone must wear a gown, gloves, face-mask, hair-net and over-shoes. In addition they must pass through a double door with an airshower designed to remove any particles. No material that could cause contamination is allowed in the clean room. From the injection moulding machine our consumables are processed and bagged in the clean room. Only once they have left the clean room are they are placed in the transport box ready for shipment. The efficacy of this process is tested periodically so we can be sure that FluidX consumables are production sterile and meet the standards outlined in the table below: Gamma Irradiation Sterilisation Typically laboratory consumables requiring sterilisation are treated to ensure a Sterility Assurance Level, or SAL, of 10-6. Irradiation itself cannot guarantee that the product is free from other ontaminants such as those listed in the previous table, only that there are no viable micro- organisms. To ensure no further contaminants are present production sterility is still an essential requirement. However is not possible to guarantee that gamma irradiation will destroy any DNA contamination to a point where it cannot be amplified and interfere with subsequent analysis. Gamma irradiation affects polypropylene so that it becomes more brittle over time and increases the binding characteristics of the plastic (for more information see the FluidX application note Choice of Polypropylene Polymer and Production Sterile versus Gamma Irradiation ). For this reason FluidX recommends that, wherever possible, production sterility is relied on to deliver the contamination free product required for research and long term storage. Ethylene Oxide Sterilisation (EtO) Contaminant Endotoxin (Pyrogen) DNA/RNA DNase/RNase Heavy Metals Animal (TSE/BSE) Testing Standard Product(s) have been tested by a 3rd party and found to be below the acceptance level 0.05 EU/ml Product(s) are free of contaminations based on 3rd party electrophoresis evaluation of degradation No heavy metal is contained in any of our product(s) and meet CONEG requirements of 100 ppm/weight Based on 3rd party ELISA testing no product(s) are manufactured from, or comes into contact with, animal materials Ensuring that no amplifiable DNA is present relies on: (i) Production sterile manufacturing, (ii) Sterilisation using Ethylene Oxide (EtO). Sterilisation using EtO has been shown to be as effective as gamma irradiation at providing a sterility assurance level of 10-6. In addition it is effective at ensuring that there is no DNA that can be amplified to a level where there is any risk of subsequent interference. It is therefore the sterilisation method of choice in critical areas such as forensics. Manufactured in a clean room.

Recommended Temperature Range for FluidX Sample Storage Tubes Cryogenic storage at very cold temperatures is designed to provide an indefinite, if not nearly infinite, longevity to biological materials. By reducing sample temperatures to below the glass transition phase of water (-132 C), all metabolic activity comes to a halt. Storage below this temperature therefore offers the most secure form of long term cryo- preservation. Storage in gas phase liquid Nitrogen provides a convenient way of storing samples at temperatures below this transition temperature. FluidX screw cap storage tubes are designed for long term sample storage at cryogenic temperatures, including storage in the gas phase of liquid Nitrogen. Gas phase liquid Nitrogen temperatures have been typically quoted as between -150 C and -178 C, depending on the location and the distance away from the liquid nitrogen reservoir surface. However, the latest generation of cryogenic storage systems are powered by liquid nitrogen in such a way to ensure a consistent temperature within the storage chamber, and can be as low as -195 C. All FluidX screw cap storage tubes are fully compatible with this storage temperature and can be safely used for long term storage in this environment. Brooks Life Science BioStore Cryo III However, immersion in liquid nitrogen is not recommended for two reasons: 1. Liquid nitrogen is extremely pervasive. If a tube cap is not completely and correctly tightened nitrogen may seep inside the tube. When the tube is then removed from storage this liquid nitrogen will instantly boil, expanding to over 700 times its liquid volume. This creates a significant risk of explosion and/or biohazard risk from aerosols. 2. Many researchers have noted that immersion in liquid nitrogen carries with it a significant risk of cross contamination from bacteria, viruses and DNA that can be present within the liquid Nitrogen. Therefore, if required, snap-freezing is best achieved by immersing the tube in liquid nitrogen to a depth that avoids the nitrogen coming into direct contact with the tube cap. 46 www.fluidx.eu Tel +44(0) 1625 861 614 info@fluidx.eu
