Temperature resistant cryovials: Maxxline® cryogenic tubes have excellent thermal properties that make them perfect for cryopreservation of life science samples. Each cryotube is molded from a custom blend of polypropylene that remains stable at ultra-temperatures (up to -196°C) without cracking. Additionally, Maxxline® cryovials can be decontaminated by autoclaving at 121°C to reduce the chances of cross-contamination.

Cryogenic tubes with quick-seal design: Many cryovial designs on the market are unwieldy, requiring the use of both hands to open and close. This makes it difficult to handle the cryotubes when pipetting samples. Maxxline® cryotubes have an innovative quick-seal design that makes them easy to open and close with a single hand. A half-turn closure makes it easy and comfortable to open and close each cryogenic tube. With Maxxline® cryovials, sample loading and off-loading is much faster and streamlined, saving you precious time.

Slim external thread cryotube design: Maxxline® cryovials have an external thread design that gives them slim, ergonomic profile. The external thread design maximizes sample retrieval by keeping a smooth cryotube interior. Additionally, the lids remain flush with the body of the cryogenic tube, making the cryotubes easy to store and handle. This functional design language also gives Maxxline® cryovials an incredibly beautiful, almost unibody appearance that pleases the eye.

Cryovials with readable labels: Most cryovials in the Maxxline® cryotube range feature molded graduation marks that are interspaced at 0.5mL intervals (excl. 0.5mL cryotubes). By molding graduation marks into the body of the cryogenic tubes sample volumes are easy to read under a variety of lighting conditions, reducing eye strain. Each cryogenic tube also features a large labeling area for custom sample indexing (excl. 0.5mL cryovials).

Cryovials with a stable star-foot bottom: Another excellent feature of Maxxline® cryovials is the star-foot bottom that stabilizes each cryotube. The multiple anchor points on this innovative cryogenic tube base design help the cryovials remain stable on workbenches during sample loading. The unique star-foot design also locks into place in select cryoboxes, keeping them upright during movement and freezer storage. This, along with the leak-proof design, reduces the chances of sample leakage from Maxxline® cryogenic tubes.
