Overview

The BioStore -190°C LN2-Based Automated Storage System provides researchers and biobank managers with a best-in-class storage solution for cellular products and biosamples. The system combines a high-efficiency LN2 stainless steel freezer with the Azenta Life Sciences technology and software to ensure the highest sample integrity.

The BioStore -190°C LN2-Based Automated Storage System offers the greatest sample protection and comprehensive inventory management and control with a superior user experience at an affordable price. Targeted and non-targeted samples are protected from warming above Tg (glass transition) throughout sample retrieval. Quality is assured by viewing user access, sample inventory, history, and audit-trail reports. Emergency situation protection provides greater than 20 days of temperature stability in the case of energy or LN2 loss.

Key Features

Sample Integrity, Security & Tracking
- Consistent -190°C temperatures achieved for from top to bottom using LN2 vapor
- A sample integrity calculator protects samples from excessive warming by predicting their temperatures based on experimental evidence
- Integrity is further enhanced by protecting innocent samples during storage and retrieval transient exposures
- Racks are quickly pulled into an insulated sleeve, significantly slowing transient warming
- 20-day safety hold time below -135°C (Tg) with full manual access if power or LN2 are disrupted
- Comprehensive inventory management with vial-level ID, audit trail, reports, and LIMS connectivity
Software
- Controller software and touchscreen enable efficient order management and execution
- Its easy-to-use graphical interface permits tube-level inventory management plus sample storage, retrieval, and auditing
- The software monitors storage environment data and has comprehensive error handling
- LIMS connectivity is available for real-time sample management
- Full 21-CFR-11 reporting capability is available
- Administrator-defined libraries and access control can optimize the system as a shared resource
