Reproducible organised benchtop cooling and freezing

Thermo-conductive CoolRacks from BioCision introduce critical reproducibility and instant organisation into benchtop sample cooling and freezing for the clinical, diagnostics, pharmaceutical, biotech and CRO markets.

Reproducible sample collection, handling and storage is critical to obtaining meaningful experimental and clinical trial data, but often simple procedures such as benchtop sample cooling, freezing and snap-freezing can vary from sample to sample, researcher to researcher, clinic to clinic, day to day.

CoolRack thermo-conductive tube, plate and sample holders standardise temperature control. Precision-engineered and manufactured from patent-pending thermo-adaptive alloy, they equilibrate all wells to within 0.1ºC of the source temperature. They are portable, versatile and can be implemented in any procedure requiring ice, dry ice, liquid nitrogen, water bath, heat block or any other laboratory temperature source.

All samples are kept upright at exactly the same temperature regardless of well position, and racked samples can be moved from ice to water bath en masse, giving a rapid identical temperature shift for all samples. In addition to eliminating temperature variability, CoolRacks are designed to provide stable, compact and indexed organisation, saving time and reducing user errors commonly associated with directly immersing tubes or plates in ice, dry ice or other sources.

For ice-free portable cooling and freezing, CoolRacks can be paired with CoolBox which utilises cartridges to maintain cooling and freezing temperatures on the benchtop, in biosafety cabinets or in GMP suites where ice could be a potential source of contamination.
