PR1MA Transport Tubes with Temperature Indicator

 

Leak-Proof, 95kPa Compliant, Temperature-Indicating Sample Vials.

 

PR1MA Self-Standing Transport Tubes—commonly known as mailing tubes or transport vials—are specifically engineered for the safe storage, transport, and freezing of temperature-sensitive biological samples. Made from virgin polypropylene, these tubes are RNase, DNase, and pyrogen-free, ensuring contamination-free use in medical, clinical, pharmaceutical, and research settings.

 

Each sterile tube features a 1¼-turn, leak-proof screw cap that is pre-attached for convenience. The tubes are fully 95kPa compliant, making them ideal for the air transport of infectious or high-risk samples.

 

Now enhanced with Temperature Indicator Technology, each tube includes a
built-in indicator patch that offers a visual cue of the sample’s temperature state:

  • Starts turning blue at 4°C
  • Turns dark blue at 0°C
  • Returns to transparent grey above 4°C

This unique feature helps researchers monitor cold chain integrity and prevents sample degradation due to temperature fluctuation—perfect for transporting vaccines, reagents, or temperature-sensitive specimens.

 

Key Features

  • Temperature Indicator for real-time temperature awareness
  • Certified 95kPa compliant for air shipment of biological materials
  • Made from high-purity, virgin polypropylene
  • Leak-proof, 1¼-turn screw caps (pre-attached)
