Globe Scientific LCS-D13RW is a pack of 4,800 13 mm cryogenic label dots on laser sheets in assorted colors (960 each in blue, green, violet, red and yellow), 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.
