The popular Micronic Starter Packs were introduced for laboratories looking for a complete single source solution for their traceable sample storage requirements. Micronic Starter Packs contain everything needed to start using coded (or non-coded) sample storage tubes enabling laboratory workers to ensure a secure sample logistics system and eliminate the costly possibility of false sample identities. Each attractively priced pack contains a case of racked tubes, the unique CapCluster multi-piercable tube capping system and a versatile plate sealing device that will seal rack and capmat combinations. To provide a total sample storage and retrieval solution an easy-to-use tube scanner has been added that allows reading of 96 coded tubes within 20 seconds.
