Automated Cell Thawing System ThawSTAR™ automated cell thawing system addresses the last gap in the cell cryopreservation workflow: cell thawing. Replacing common methods of cell thawing such as swirling frozen vials in communal water baths and warming vials between hands - methods that are not standardized and potentially jeopardize the integrity and safety of the sample - ThawSTAR system ensures consistent and reproducible thawing. Utilizing patent-pending STAR™ sensing technology, ThawSTAR employs multiple detection mechanisms to determine vial temperature, phase change initiation and...

ThawSTAR™ Reproducibility 37°C Water Bath 1.8 mL cryogenic vials filled with 1 mL of cryopreservation medium (10% DMSO/20% FBS/70% DMEM) were fitted with an interior wall thermocouple (< 0.5 mm from internal wall surface) and a central axis thermocouple, frozen at -80°C, and maintained at -75°C in a CoolRack® on dry ice. Three vials were thawed in a 37°C water bath (left panel) or in the ThawSTAR™ System (right panel). The temperature profiles recorded by both thermocouples were very similar for both the water bath and the ThawSTAR thaw. For the water bath thaw, the vials were removed from...

ThawSTAR™ Performance cont. Cell Count Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC). 3 vials from LN2 stores were thawed via a dry bead bath and ThawSTAR automated system. Cell recovery and viability were measured immediately post-thaw (Day 1) and after 3 days growth (Day 3). Bead bath thaw >5 min, ThawSTAR thaw 2.5 min. - Data courtesy of Dr. Min Liu at Children’s National Hospital, DC Ordering Information ThawSTAR™ Transport and Thawing System ThawSTAR Transport and Thawing System is a complete solution for standardized thawing of cells from frozen storage. Components include ThawSTAR Automated Cell...

Ultra-Low Temperature Stability System BioT™ ULT Transporter is a breakthrough portable solution for freezing, or transporting valuable frozen biological samples and other temperaturesensitive specimens. The versatile ultra-low temperature system maintains a stable < -70 to -50°C temperature range throughout its entire 8-inch working depth over an 8 hour period with the lid off. With the lid on, the transporter maintains < -70° to -50°C in the chamber for over 24 hours, enabling longer sample transport with virtually no temperature variation or risk of elevated temperatures that could...

BioT™ ULT Transporter Performance Lid open: Over 8 hours < -50°C Temperature profile of BioT™ ULT Transporter loaded with dry ice and with lid open. The entire 8 inch working depth of the transporter remains below -50°C (green shading) for over 8 hours with one charge of dry ice and with the lid open. Temperature readings were taken every 2 inches above the chamber floor for 8 hours. Inches above base chamber floor: 0 inches (dark purple), 2 inches (purple), 4 inches (lavender), 6 inches (dark blue), 8 inches (light blue). Lid closed: Over 24 hours < -50°C Temperature profile of BioT ULT...
