Thermo Scientific Cryotube Vial 1.8 ml Starfoot Case of 450 Vials

Thermo Scientific Nunc 375418 CryoTube Vials – 1.8 mL, StarFoot, Internal Thread

The Thermo Scientific Nunc 375418 is a high-quality 1.8 mL cryogenic vial designed for the long-term preservation of biological samples, including cells, blood, and serum. These vials feature an internal thread design with a silicone gasket, providing a superior seal that minimizes the risk of contamination and sample loss during ultra-low temperature storage. Equipped with the innovative StarFoot base, these vials lock into Nunc cryogenic racks for easy, one-handed opening and closing. Manufactured from medical-grade, low-binding polypropylene and certified to be non-pyrogenic and non-cytotoxic, the 375418 is the gold standard for biobanking, clinical research, and genomic sample management.

Technical Performance and Design

• StarFoot Base: The proprietary star-shaped bottom allows the vial to lock into the grooves of Nunc CryoLine racks, facilitating high-throughput one-handed capping and uncapping.

• Internal Thread with Silicone Gasket: The internal threading reduces the risk of contamination at the rim, while the high-performance silicone gasket ensures a leak-proof seal down to vapor-phase LN2 temperatures.

• Low-Binding Polypropylene: Constructed from USP Class VI polypropylene, which minimizes the adsorption of proteins and nucleic acids to the vial walls, ensuring maximum sample recovery.

• Large Writing Area & Graduations: Features a large white marking area for easy labeling and clear black graduations (0.5 mL increments) for rapid volume estimation.
