Sterile MST™ Cryogenic Vials with Caps

Caplugs® Evergreen Sterile MST™ Cryogenic Vials are one of the two styles of small sample vials offered by our catalog, ideal for long-term storage of biological samples at ultra-low temperatures. Made from durable polypropylene co-polymer, these vials are sterile, leak-proof and designed to withstand temperatures as low as vapor phase* liquid nitrogen (-320°F/-195°C). Perfect for use in biobanks, research labs and clinical settings, storing blood/serum samples, cell cultures, sperm and other biological specimens. What makes this style of vial different is the built-in lip at the neck of the tube for easier placement in filling machines and provides a ridge that allows for minimal surface contact during transport.

*Caplugs does not recommend the use of MST™ Cryogenic Vials for immersion in liquid nitrogen or any other liquified gases. Immersion may cause potential leakage in vials with the subsequent danger of rapid pressure build-up and/or explosion when returned to room temperature. Please use MST™ Cryogenic Vials with caution.
