• Keeping cryogenically preserved cells and biological samples frozen while handling is key to maintaining viability and function. Temperature sensitive samples, such as primary and cultured cells, protein extracts and RNA, can be irreversibly damaged by allowing the samples to warm or thaw.
• CryoCooler™ was designed to prevent this warming of frozen samples during handling.
• Helps to preserve the integrity of frozen vials of cultured cells and tissue specimens during routine handling.
• CryoCooler well contains a pillow that adsorbs liquid nitrogen. Once charged, the pillow slowly releases liquid nitrogen vapour which can keep samples at temperatures below -130°C for up to 4 hours.
• Ideal for preparing stored tissue for RNA isolation or for the sorting of frozen vials, preparing samples, or transporting samples between laboratories.
• Large 6x5"" opening easily fits a 5x5"" liquid nitrogen storage rack for easy sorting.
• Samples will remain at cryogenic temperatures for up to 4 hours with the lid closed and for up to 3 hours with the lid open.
• Allows for in-house transportation of cryogenic samples.
• CryoCooler™ can also be used in conjunction with the CryoGrinder™ product line for the homogenization of small samples (<100 mg).
