one small integer is not enough, two small integers are better (lab journal initials/number and sample number, like AC7-295. something like AC7-295A, then AC7-295B and so on if needed. that’s how i do it anyway) this way there’s no possibility of mixup with other people’s samples and samples described in old lab journals

Some way to identify the person who wrote it is also helpful. Different cultures write numbers differently.
The French person reads the top one as 1 , 2, 3.
The American reads it as 7, 2, 3.
speaking of, at least it’s using latin alphabet. Good luck making sense of Thai handwriting smudged by acetone especially if you’re not a speaker
