RITrack revolutionizes frozen sample handling with radio-frequency tagging, overcoming ice challenges on tube and rack bases. Tags hold tube and rack data, fit SBS racks, and can be read by Mirage reader or smartphone app for seamless sample tracking, even with frost.
Identifies 2D codes without line of sight
Decodes frost-covered tubes
Intuitive app for remote rack reading
Unlimited re-writes on RFID tags
Product Details
Revolutionizing the handling of frozen samples stored in 2D-coded tubes, RITrack utilizes innovative radio-frequency tagging to eliminate the challenges posed when no line of sight is clear for 2D coded tubes, such as ice formation on tube and rack bases. With the ability to store identities for up to 96 tubes in a rack, it works seamlessly with cryotubes straight from the freezer, including vapor-phase LN2 storage, safeguarding thermally sensitive samples without requiring warming or thawing. Compatible with standard SBS racks, RITrack lowers operational costs, offering a cost-effective and durable sample tracking solution that enhances lab productivity.
As RITrack tags use standard RFID technology, they can also be read by any smartphone device with Near Field Communication (NFC). An easy-to-use app can be downloaded free from the App Store or Google Play to any compatible smartphone. The app allows the tag information to be read and the data displayed in either graphical or tabular format. This makes it easy to identify any individual tube in the frozen rack together with its location. Simply open the freezer, withdraw a rack and offer it up to the phone to see all the available tubes in that rack,
