ViewPoint® tubes are a tool to help you track the real-time temperature of your samples when doing bench work or transferring samples to storage. ViewPoint® centrifuge tubes visably signal the temperature of the tube and contents. Shifting to dark blue when the temperature of tube contents is below 0°C. This helps you keep better control over your work and can improve processing times.
ViewPoint® Tubes have exclusive features and are Patents Pending worldwide. The three color tube labeling graphics are copyrights, trademarks, and trade dress of Labcon.
ViewPoint® tubes are available in packaging styles for all your needs, including our exclusive IntegraPack® 10 tube Sterile packs, Patented fiber racks, and non-sterile bulk bags (1.5mL). All our sterile products use medical grade packaging and are radiation sterilized following a validated ISO 11137 method to a sterility assurance level of 10-6.
ViewPoint® tubes transition from clear to blue when exposed to cold temperatures. This multi-step and reversible thermochromic transition offers real-time temperature signaling to indicate fluctuations above and below 4°C. At 5° C and above ViewPoint® tubes are clear and transparent. At 4°C ViewPoint® tubes transition to light blue and become slightly opaque. At 0°C ViewPoint® tubes reach their full progressive transition to dark blue, are completely opaque, and provide protection from Ultraviolet (UV) light.
ViewPoint® tubes are offered in 1.5 mL, 15 mL, and 50 mL size tubes in sterile and none sterile packaging.

A large number of protocols require chilled cells and/or chilled solvents. In these protocols samples and solutions are chilled for 30 minutes, 3 hours, or overnight. ViewPoint™ signals that a sample is chilled to 0 – 4°C. Efficient chilling reduces incubation time, saving researchers time in a busy workflow.
It is critical to reduce the formation of ice crystals when working with aqueous samples. Ice crystals begin to form at 0 – 4°C and damage cells. ViewPoint® tubes begin transitioning from clear to light blue at 4°C with full dark blue signaling at 0°C. Real-time temperature signaling alerts the researcher to potentially harmful ice crystal formation and enables the maintenance of the desired temperature throughout experimentation.
When fully dark blue (0°C) ViewPoint® tubes provide added protection from Ultraviolet (UV) light. Unlike other tinted products, ViewPoint® tubes become opaque at 0°C and provide protection from UV, eliminating the need for wrapping tubes in aluminum foil to shield sensitive samples from light radiation. Without a bulky aluminum foil wrap, ViewPoint® tubes fit perfectly into racks and can be clearly labeled on the frosted writing surface.
