Absolutely secure sample audit trail
Coded tube system eliminates the possibility of false identities and absolutely ensures a secure sample audit trail
Available from Micronic the TraXis coded tube system eliminates the possibility of false identities and absolutely ensures a secure sample audit trail Using a proprietary injection molding technique that produces a unique two-dimensional code, Micronic has produced a unique and patented two-layer concentric tube that is robust and can never produce a false sample identity

Sample coding enhances traceability and retrieval
Traxis tubes may be encrypted with up to 8.5 billion different combinations of a numerical code that provide a unique identification and radically enhanced sample storage traceability
Read 1D and 2D coded tubes, simultaneously
Developed for laboratories looking to sample security and traceability, the Traxis TRxD is said to be the only tube reader that can simultaneously read both 2D Traxis codes and 1D linear bar codes
The unique laser encryption code at the bottom of each tube cannot fall off or be wiped off, as is occasionally the case with stored tubes identified with labels or pen markings.
Unlike thermally adhered coding systems, TraXis coding is absolutely resistant to mechanical and chemical abrasion making misreads impossible.
TraXis tubes may be encrypted with up to 8.5 billion different combinations of a numerical code that provide a unique identification and radically enhances sample storage traceability.
To enhance sample identification throughput, TraXis readers can scan all 96 tubes in a tube rack without the need for any additional location or tube removal.
Single tube scanners are also available for integration into any type of automated system.
As samples are often reformatted for diagnostic screening, Micronic also has available a novel multi-piercable cap.
The ClusterCap is hydrophobic and can be pierced at least ten times without risk of sample evaporation or contamination.
Housed in a class 10.000 clean room, Micronics's state-of-the-art production facility ensures the high product quality and consistency of the TraXis sample storage tube, polypropylene tube rack and multi-piercable tube resealing cap products.
An external body certifies all TraXis tubes and caps to be RNase and DNase free enhancing their use in sensitive biological applications. Request a free brochure from Micronic ...
