Frequently Asked Questions MCT Box

These MCT boxes are designed to work at temperatures ranging from -190°C to +121°C. This extraordinary range covers virtually all laboratory storage and sterilization needs: liquid nitrogen vapor phase (-190°C to -150°C), mechanical freezers (-20°C to -80°C), refrigerators (2-8°C), and autoclave sterilization (121°C). This allows samples to remain in the same box throughout their entire lifecycle without requiring transfer between containers.

Two optimized models are available:
• Code 63213: Holds 100 micro centrifuge tubes of 0.5ml capacity in a high-density grid (typically 10x10), ideal for small tube storage and high-throughput applications.
• Code 63214: Holds 64 micro centrifuge tubes of 1.5ml capacity in an 8x8 grid, perfect for standard-size tube storage.
Both models feature the same premium polycarbonate construction, transparent numbered cover, and extreme temperature performance.

Polycarbonate offers a unique combination of properties ideal for cryogenic storage: exceptional impact resistance and strength even at -190°C (where many plastics become brittle), excellent transparency for sample visibility without opening the box, and full autoclavability at 121°C for decontamination. This combination of cryogenic performance, clarity, and sterilizability makes polycarbonate the best material choice for these applications and the top rated for cryogenic storage boxes.

The transparent cover features a permanently marked or printed grid with row letters and column numbers (e.g., A1 through H8 for the 64-tube box). This numbering system allows laboratory personnel to record exact tube positions (Sample X in C7) in inventories or laboratory information management systems (LIMS). The covers transparency enables visual inspection of tube contents, labels, and colored caps without opening the box—preserving the cold chain and reducing handling. This combination of visibility and systematic numbering provides better inventory control.

Yes, these boxes are designed for use in liquid nitrogen vapor phase storage at temperatures down to -190°C. The polycarbonate material maintains its strength and dimensional stability at these extreme cryogenic temperatures. For liquid nitrogen immersion (liquid phase), always verify compatibility with your specific storage conditions, as rapid temperature changes can affect any material.

Yes, these MCT boxes are fully autoclavable at 121°C. They can be repeatedly sterilized without degradation, allowing thorough decontamination between uses. This is particularly important for boxes used with biological samples that may pose biohazard risks. The polycarbonate material maintains its transparency and structural integrity through multiple autoclave cycles.

Yes, the precision-molded tube holes are engineered to hold tubes securely with a slight friction fit that prevents tubes from falling out even when the box is inverted or handled during transfer. Yet the retention force is carefully calibrated to allow easy one-handed tube removal when needed. This secure retention is essential for sample safety during storage and transport.

Both Code 63213 (100 x 0.5ml) and Code 63214 (64 x 1.5ml) are supplied in packs of 4 pieces. This economical pack quantity allows laboratories to implement comprehensive, organized storage systems across multiple freezers and work areas with consistent, high-quality boxes throughout.

Yes, these MCT boxes feature a stackable design with interlocking features that allow secure stacking in freezers and on shelves. The robust polycarbonate construction supports the weight of stacked boxes without deformation, maximizing freezer storage efficiency while maintaining sample organization.

Polycarbonate offers good resistance to many laboratory chemicals including alcohols, dilute acids, and some buffers. However, it can be affected by strong bases, some organic solvents (like acetone or chloroform), and prolonged exposure to autoclave conditions. For specific chemical compatibility with your samples or disinfectants, consult standard polycarbonate resistance charts.

For routine cleaning, wash with mild laboratory detergent and warm water using a soft brush if needed, then rinse thoroughly with distilled water. For sterilization, autoclave at 121°C for standard cycles. The boxes can also be disinfected using laboratory disinfectants compatible with polycarbonate. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the transparent cover. The smooth, non-porous surface resists contamination and simplifies cleaning.

These MCT boxes combine multiple features that make them exceptional for cryogenic applications: the premium polycarbonate construction provides strength and clarity from -190°C to +121°C; the two optimized models (100 x 0.5ml and 64 x 1.5ml) address specific tube size needs; the transparent numbered cover enables visual inventory control without opening; the secure tube retention prevents sample loss; the autoclavable construction allows decontamination; and the stackable design maximizes freezer efficiency. This comprehensive design, focused on the extreme demands of cryogenic storage, makes these boxes the best choice and the top rated solution for micro centrifuge tube cryostorage.
