The ideal shipping tube
for small and large
sample volumes
ProtectR® tubes are the ideal vessel for primary
and secondary sample containment. Samples are
shipped on dry ice in a variety of volumes. When
shipped in standard, small volume tubes, samples
are at risk of acidifcation. ProtectR® tubes can be
used as a secondary shipping tube for multiple small
volume tubes. With their airtight, leak-resistant secure
seal, ProtectR® tubes provide a protective barrier
against CO2 exposure, safeguarding the sample(s) inside from costly damage. Only ProtectR® tubes ensure consistent sample integrity and protein activity across experiments. Even if samples are delayed during shipping, they will not become compromised, saving time and money.
IATA 95 kPa certified for shipping
Most international and domestic carriers now require adherence to the IATA standards for all biological substance shipments. IATA 95 kPa certification ensures containers are leak-resistant under differential pressure conditions such as in air transport. This certification
requires containers to prove capable of withstanding, without leakage, an internal pressure producing a
pressure differential of not less
than 95 kPa (0.95 bar, 13.8 psi).
Since air transportation is typically the most rigorous transport condition, containers that meet IATA regulations will also meet the requirements of other transport methods.
