Cryolab Explains the Key Role of Cryocanes, Visotubes, and Cryosleeves in IVF Sample Management

LONDON - April 8, 2026 - PRLog -- Cryolab Ltd, the UK-based cryogenic equipment specialist, has outlined the critical function of cryocanes, visotubes, cryosleeves, and cryocane coders in safe, compliant IVF and research laboratory sample storage.

According to Cryolab, these four storage accessories form an interconnected system for cryogenic sample management. Cryocanes (aluminium rods holding 5–6 samples) provide vertical sample positioning inside liquid nitrogen canisters. Cryosleeves (PVC protective covers) reduce thermal and physical exposure during retrieval. Visotubes (transparent CBS-system containers available in round, triangular, hexagonal and polygonal formats) allow visual identification without opening. Cryocane coders (colour-coded identification clips) enable immediate cane identification in busy multi-canister storage systems. The company supplies the complete CBS storage accessory range to IVF clinics, biobanks, and research laboratories across the UK and internationally. Details at
