Outstanding sample protection – Thermo Scientific Cold Storage
Mar 03 2010
Successfully cooling and storing cells as frozen samples, while effectively maintaining viability, is a pivotal step for any laboratory looking to provide a continuous source of tissue and genetically-stable living cells. With uses including the long-term storage of valuable preparations, tissue samples and reagents, your laboratory requires a complete range of reliable products that have been designed and manufactured specifically to maintain sample integrity, and therefore function, during ultra-cold and cryogenic storage. Providing a complete equipment offering, Thermo Scientific products can help you along every step of the way, providing your laboratory with the ultimate in sample protection.
Preparation of samples before long-term storage is equally important to the freezing process itself, effectively reducing the chances of cellular damage occurring. Controlled-rate freezing before long-term sample storage is therefore a vital step, since the rate at which cells are cooled has an extremely significant influence on cell survival. The Thermo Scientific CryoMed Controlled Rate Freezer enables you to freeze your sample at the rate of your choice, giving you the ability to adapt your freezing rate in accordance with various protocols and cell types.
Researchers worldwide protect more than two billion samples inside Thermo Scientific cold storage equipment. With +4°C refrigerators to -196°C cryogenic freezers, your samples are effectively maintained at an accurate and uniform temperature throughout. With a patented refrigeration system and robust electronic platforms, the range of Thermo Scientific ultra-low temperature freezers provide excellent energy efficiency, temperature stability and fast recovery times to ensure the highest possible sample integrity. If you prefer to use liquid nitrogen (LN2), temperatures are accurately maintained in the liquid or vapour phase via the auto-filling mechanism. Alarms are available to clearly alert you to low LN2 levels, allowing you to carry on with your work, without needing to worry about your samples.
All Thermo Scientific cryopreservation products effectively maintain temperatures below – 130 °C to ensure that cellular metabolism is halted. If you would like more information on any of the cold storage products available from Thermo Fisher Scientific, please visit www.thermo.com/coldstorage
