Colour Coded Plastic Tabs Simplifying Cryogenic Sample Identification

 

Managing cryogenic samples can be challenging, especially when relying on handwritten notes or adhesive labels that may fade over time. Colour-coded plastic tabs provide a simple, durable solution for organising samples stored in cryocanes and visotubes.

These tabs fit securely on the tops of cryocanes and visotubes, offering instant visual identification without the need to remove containers or search through multiple canisters. By assigning colours to different sample types, projects, storage dates, or priority levels, laboratories can create a clear, consistent labelling system. For example, blue might indicate blood samples, green for tissue, and red for urgent or time-sensitive materials.

Constructed from high-quality plastic, the tabs resist cracking and fading in cryogenic conditions, ensuring they remain legible and securely attached through repeated freezing and thawing cycles. This makes them ideal for long-term biobanking, clinical storage, and research laboratories where precise, consistent sample identification is critical.

For optimal workflow, these colour-coded tabs pair perfectly with CBS Round Visotubes and cryocanes, creating a fully compatible storage system. Together, they help labs keep samples organised, accessible, and secure, reducing errors and saving valuable time.

With colour-coded tabs, laboratories can achieve a more efficient, reliable, and visually intuitive system for managing cryogenic samples, supporting both routine workflows and high-throughput environments. contact us on www.cryolab.co.uk
