Cryotubes and Cryovials: Secure, Ready to Use Storage for Cryopreservation

 

Cryo tubes and cryovials sit at the heart of reliable sample storage. When you’re working in IVF, biobanking or research, you need containers that can handle deep-cold conditions without compromising the material inside. Cryolab’s CBS High Security Tubes are designed for exactly that.

Each tube arrives individually packaged and ready to use, which keeps handling clean and removes any need for extra preparation. Labs often rely on a mix of cryogenic tubes, cryo vials, 2 ml cryovials, 5 ml cryovial formats and smaller options like 0.5 ml cryo tubes, depending on the work at hand. The CBS tubes fit neatly into that wider toolkit, giving you a dependable option for long-term cryopreservation.

You can choose bags of 20 or 50, which helps both small and high-throughput teams stay organised. IVF clinics appreciate how straightforward they are to integrate into daily work, while research labs value their consistency during freezing, transfers and storage in liquid nitrogen vapor or ultra-low freezers.

Here’s what the science says about cryopreservation using cryovials or cryotubes: when used properly typically in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen or in ultra-low freezers cryovials help halt biological processes and metabolic decay, effectively “pausing” the sample so that cells, DNA, embryos or other tissues remain viable for future use. Wikipedia+1

Many workflows also use accessories such as cryo tube labels, cryo tube racks, barcoded cryo tubes and storage vials. CBS High Security Tubes drop straight into these systems without fuss.

For sealing, pair them with the CBS SYMS III Sealer. It delivers a tight, dependable closure before samples move into cryo boxes or vapour-phase storage, keeping everything tidy and controlled. For more information visit www.cryolab.co.uk
