Globe Scientific LCS-D13N is a box of 3,840 orange 13 mm cryogenic label dots on 20 laser sheets (192 per sheet), sized for 1.5–2 mL tubes.
Globe rates the adhesive from −196 °C (−311 °F), the temperature of liquid nitrogen, up to +80 °C, so the labels stay put through long-term cryogenic storage. They can be printed or written on and will not bleed, smudge or smear. The sheets run through a laser printer; Globe includes printing instructions and a template.
