Are BIOBased Materials Suitable for –196°C Storage?
Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important consideration across life sciences and laboratory environments.
In many applications, adopting more sustainable materials may involve balancing environmental benefits...
Freeze–thaw Cycles: the Hidden Structural Impact on Cryo Tubes
Cryogenic storage is often associated with maintaining extremely low temperatures.
However, not all stress in biobanking comes from temperature alone.
Repeated freeze–thaw cycles — even when...
1D vs 2D Coding in Cryogenic Biobanking
In biobanking, identification errors rarely cause immediate failure. Their consequences often surface much later, sometimes months or even years after storage.
A mislabeled tube. A...
Ultra-Low Temperature Storage: Why Tube Performance Matters at −196 °C
Cryogenic storage in biobanking is commonly associated with achieving and maintaining extremely low temperatures. But it is not only that.
When samples are stored down to -196 °C,...
In Biobanking, Some Tools Work Well Until the Moment They Don’t
The risk is not just losing samples, but losing the information they carry.
Failures Don’t Happen at the Beginning
In long-term biobanking, failures rarely occur at...
