Uniform Cooling of Cellular Samples
The FTS Bio-Cool from SP Industries delivers the uniform and precise cooling of cellular samples at a controlled rate to as low as -80°C.
The mechanically refrigerated system provides a reliable, safe and quiet alternative to controlled-rate freezers that utilize liquid nitrogen as the refrigerant. Unlike liquid nitrogen systems which surround samples with a cold vapour phase, the system immerses samples into a well-circulated, cold liquid bath. The circulating liquid allows efficient heat transfer to the samples and maintains a consistent temperature profile at all locations.
The system has a programmable microprocessor controller with the ability to program and store up to eight different protocols, each with up to eight distinct segments specifying ramp rate, hold temperature, and hold time. The Bio-Cool 80 model is a registered medical device and is available with data collection capability.
