Choosing the right portable container depends on several factors, including:
Type of Sample: Different samples require different types of containers. For example, liquid samples might need leak-proof containers, while solid tissue samples might require containers that can hold a fixative. Storage Conditions: Consider the storage conditions, such as temperature and humidity, when selecting a container. Cryogenic vials are necessary for samples that need to be stored at very low temperatures. Volume: The volume of the sample will determine the size of the container needed. Ensure that the container is large enough to hold the sample without compromising its integrity. Material: The material of the container should be compatible with the sample and any chemicals it might be exposed to. For example, certain plastics might react with some fixatives.
