Frequently Asked Questions Multi Purpose Rectangular Storage Box

PolyLab racks and boxes are designed to perform from -80°C ultra-low freezers to +121°C autoclave conditions. The materials remain flexible and crack-resistant even at cryogenic temperatures, ensuring your samples remain protected during long-term storage and through temperature transitions.

Alphanumeric indexing uses letters for rows (A, B, C, etc.) and numbers for columns (1, 2, 3, etc.) to create unique coordinates for each position. This system allows precise sample tracking in your inventory database. Simply record the box ID and well coordinate (e.g., Box 5, Position A3) for each sample.

Yes, PolyLab cryoboxes and racks are specifically engineered for ultra-low temperature storage. They are manufactured from materials that resist becoming brittle at -80°C, preventing cracking and ensuring safe sample storage. Always allow boxes to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.

Many PolyLab racks are fully autoclavable at 121°C. This allows for sterilization between uses, particularly important for microbiology and cell culture applications. Always check the specific product specifications for autoclave compatibility, as some racks may have components with different temperature tolerances.

PolyLab racks and boxes are available in multiple colors including red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple, and clear. Color-coding enables quick visual organization by project, sample type, date, or priority, enhancing laboratory efficiency and reducing errors.

To minimize frost formation, ensure boxes are sealed properly before placing in ultra-low freezers. Open freezer doors minimally and avoid opening boxes while cold. Allow boxes to warm slightly in a sealed bag before opening to prevent condensation. Some PolyLab boxes feature ventilation slits for even cooling, which can also help manage frost.
