LabCoolerŽ Transport/Storage Modules
LabCoolerŽ Transport/Storage Modules are available for cryogenic and ultra-low temperature storage as well as conventional freezer storage. Modules are useful in maintaining temperature stability of stored samples in vials during handling, and greater control over pull-down during initial freeze cycles.

Choose from LabCoolerŽ Cryopreservation Modules in two sizes, as well as LabCoolerŽ Benchtop Coolers, also in two sizes.

LabCoolerŽ and LabCoolerŽ Lite
Cryopreservation Modules

The LabCoolerŽ and LabCoolerŽ Lite preservation modules are designed to freeze mammalian and insect cells with greater control over pull-down freezing prior to storage in an ultra-low temperature freezer. Typical pulldown rates of 0.4°C to 0.6°C per minute improve cell viability from 80% to 90%.

Available in two sizes, LabCoolerŽ and LabCoolerŽ Lite, these modules hold up to 7 or 32 standard vials with caps, and fit conveniently into an ultra-low temperature freezer.

Protocol1

  • Cells suspended in tissue-culture freeze medium (e.g. 95% FCS,5% DMSO cooled to -20°C) are transferred to cryovials which are then placed in the pre-chilled (+4°C) LabCoolerŇ Cryopreservation Module.
  • The Module is then placed in an ultra-low temperature freezer (i.e. -85°C to -150°C) for long term storage.

LabCoolerŽ II and LabCoolerŽ Lite Benchtop Coolers
The LabCoolerŽ II Benchtop Cooler maintains enzymes at a stable -15°C to -20°C for up to 2 hours when used at the lab bench. The LabCoolerŽ Lite Benchtop is smaller and more compact, maintains enzyme temperatures at -10°C or below for up to one hour outside the freezer. While stored in a -20°C freezer, these coolers insulate enzymes and other biologicals from periodic temperature fluctuations due to door openings, defrost cycles or temporary power loss.
