PORTLINK ADAPTER

Many biobanks worldwide are storing a large number of precious samples over a long time period. These samples are stored in standard cryo vials and often labelled graphically or by bar code.

In order to integrate those vials in the Perma Cryo system, we have developed our proprietary Portlink Adapter System.

Inserting standard cryo vials into the Portlink Adapter enables to equip older samples subsequently with the Perma Cryo Memory Chip even in frozen state.

The Portlink Adapter offers the same security features as the Icebreaker (RFID transponder and 2 in-mold labels) and is available for all prevalent cryo vials.

The storage of electronical SOPs on the Memory Chip ensures a more efficient and secure documentation of any workflow.

If you have any questions on the compatibility of cryo vials of any manufacturer, please contact us.

  • Proprietary Adapter system
  • for all standard cryo tubes between 1.5 ml and 2 ml
  • Perma Cryo Memory Chip
  • RFID transponder
  • In-mold-Label

Inmold-Label

The two labels are directly melted with the Icebreaker vial preventing them from peeling off under low temperatures. Labelling may be made either manually or automatically (1D, 2D bar code and/or sample ID).

Perma Cryo ® Memory Chip

The Memory Chip enables easy storage and retrieving of sample-relevant data at ultra-low temperatures down to -196ºC. Processes and analysis results may be stored as well as any other data format.

RFID transponder

The integration of low temperature compliant RFID transponders facilitates the cordless identification of each vial at any state of the process. Worldwide unique IDs may be stored unchangeably in the transponder chip.
