GA International also known as LabTAG, RF3-JTTA-216NPC1-0.5WH, NitroTAG Cryogenic RFID Labels for Thermal-Transfer Printers 2.5"Recommended Ribbons: RR-Class Smudge and Alcohol Proof Resin Ribbons.RFID NitroTAG labels are the first cryogenic RFID labels that can be used in liquid nitrogen. They can be printed and encoded using dedicated RFID thermal-transfer printers. Their flexible, passive UHF RFID chip (Class 1, Gen 2) can be encoded with up to 32 hexadecimal characters of information to record data during sample processing. The resulting label can thus contain both visual and electronic data for maximum sample tracking flexibility.RFID NitroTAG labels are specifically designed for short and long-term storage under ultra-low temperatures and cryogenic environments, including liquid and vapor phase liquid nitrogen (-196°C/-321°F), lab freezers (-80°C/-112°F), and dry ice transportation. They have a strong permanent adhesive to ensure they will stay affixed on cryo tubes & vials, cardboard and polypropylene cryo/freezer boxes, plastic bags, and triangular cassettes for straw storage. They can be scanned/read without the need for direct line-of-sight, even when in liquid nitrogen or immersed up to 1.5"/38 mm in a 37°C water bath. This can help eliminate unwanted freeze-thaw cycles, thus preserving the samples integrity. They are ideal for biobanks, biorepositories, fertility clinics, and crystallography laboratories.These RFID labels are compatible with handheld, fixed, integrated, and cryogenic (Dewar neck) RFID readers. Moreover, they can be integrated with electronic witnessing systems to improve the identification and traceability of samples, as well as workflow efficiency to comply with audits. The printout obtained is also resistant to alcohol spraying/swabbing and sanitizing wipes when printed with recommended smudge-proof RR-class of resin ribbons.Features:12" omnidirectional read range ensures quick, easy, and accurate reading from every angleScan multiple cryogenic containers at the same time, even without a clear line-of-sightFlexible UHF antenna and cryogenic adhesive allow permanent adhesion, especially on curved and wet surfaces without the need for a curing periodIdeal for liquid nitrogen storage, no lag time when scanning/reading itemsLabels are resistant to spraying and swabbing with alcohol and surface sanitizing wipesUnit of measureRoll of 500 labels.
