Put These Five Elements in Your Business Continuity Plan

Earth. Wind. Fire. Water. These classical elements can cause major destruction to laboratories all over the world. So, it’s wise to have a business continuity plan in place to prevent or offset the devastation that can result from them. Even if your business is in the lab. Whether it is a massive fire, a hurricane […]

Do You Have a Strategy in Place to Confidently and Securely Store and Transport Large Collections of Vaccines?

Vaccines are some of the most valuable biological materials that clinicians produce and use. They help prevent health issues for millions each year. However, much of the vaccines lost are due to degradation that occurs when they warm during vaccine transport. Extreme weather, natural disasters, and other emergencies can put laboratories at risk and can […]

3 Things to Consider When Shipping Critical Biological Material in Large Volume Dry Shippers

Dry Shipper Fleet Management Large volume dry shipper containers are commonly used in Life Science applications to ship large collections of biological material that need to be maintained at cryogenic temperatures. These specially designed containers utilize liquid nitrogen to keep material cold, while special absorbent medium helps prevent liquid nitrogen outflow. This feature maintains biological sample integrity […]

5 Things to Know About Lab Chemical Transport

Lab chemicals are an essential part of many research laboratories, and chemical transport is often a component of laboratory moving and maintenance. While many chemicals are harmless, some fall into the category of hazardous materials. Legal compliance when relocating potentially hazardous chemicals requires planning, care, and expertise in USDOT regulations. Here are some quick tips […]

Planning for a Temporary Laboratory Shutdown: How to Make it Go Smoothly

Using the word “shutdown” in the same sentence as research laboratory, academic facility, or pharmaceutical company seems absurd. But shutdowns are often necessary. They are highly complex, planned or unplanned, and each comes with its risks – especially when working with research samples. A temporary shutdown can be arranged for a number of reasons. Making […]

Safe Storage Temperatures for Biological Materials

Good storage practices of biological materials is an essential component of any laboratory. Biological samples often degrade over time when stored at room temperature, but some samples may also lose integrity at low temperatures if subjected to multiple freeze-thaw cycles. The best storage temperature for a given biological sample or reagent often varies depending on […]

How to Maintain Biological Sample Integrity with Cold Chain-of-Custody Transport

Transporting biological samples must follow a strict chain of custody to preserve maximum viability and function. This is vital for all samples – but especially for those that are temperature sensitive. Whether you are moving a specific collection of biosamples or an entire laboratory, exacting logistics and inventory control must be included as part of […]
