Store and track robust sample volumes with Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ 2D Barcoded Glass Storage Tubes.

• A permanently-bonded,unique 2D barcode is laser-etched onto the base of every Matrix 2D barcoded storage tube to securely identify and track samples
• Corresponding with a laboratory's throughput needs, VisionMate 2D barcode readers instantly decode each tube's 2D barcode
• A range of VisionMate 2D barcode readers are available to meet your application and throughput needs
• Scan the tube into any application or database, or integrate via various methods—the choice is yours
• VisionMate systems are flexible enough to allow 2D barcode data to be integrated into various applications, databases, and automated systems
• Once sample data is stored, just scan the tube using the database
• Find feature to instantly access sample information and identify the contents of each storage tubes

The proprietary barcoding process produces a permanent, high contrast 2D barcode, offering maximum traceability of compound, biological and genomic samples. Available with a range of sealing options and used with Thermo Scientific™ VisionMate™ and labeling systems, these barcoded storage tubes can improve a range of sample management needs and workflows.

Superior storage rack design:
Unlike traditional storage tubes or blocks, Matrix 96-format 2D barcoded storage tubes are available in a proprietary specially-designed, stackable, microplate footprint
Latch Racks to save precious space in your freezer, refrigerator, compound store or on the bench top
The latch rack design enables manual multichannel pipette access to 2D tubes and eliminates contamination risk with lid design that does not contact the benchtop
The latch rack lid can be lifted robotically for 2D tube access with automated liquid handling systems and high throughput applications

Stringent quality control:
Every 2D barcoded storage tube is scanned to guarantee readability and each code is checked against a full database of all previously assigned 2D codes to ensure zero duplicates across the entire line of Matrix 2D barcoded storage tubes
Every storage tube is leak tested to ensure the integrity and security of samples

Storage tracking solutions for any laboratory:
Glass tubes can be used for storing samples in DMSO, chlorinated solvents and other harsh chemicals and applications where newly synthesized compounds that need to be dried down or lyophylized
Custom 2D coding options are available to meet your laboratory's individual database or tracking requirements
2D storage tubes are compatible with Thermo Scientific freezer racks that allow optimal utilization of storage space
