FAQ

Liquid nitrogen storage equipment ranges from small Thermo-Flask dewars and stainless-steel vessels to high-capacity CryoExtra and CryoPlus systems, plus Thermo Scientific Nunc CryoBank vials and Corning ice-free coolers. Together they support handling, long-term storage and high-density biobanking.

Start by assessing your LN2 consumption, refill frequency and the number of samples to be stored. Smaller dewars suit occasional transfers, while 20–50L vessels or CryoExtra and CryoPlus systems suit continuous storage. Thermo Scientific and Taylor Wharton solutions provide capacities matched to different workflows.

For long-term vapor or liquid phase LN2 storage, use dedicated cryovials such as Thermo Scientific Nunc CryoBank and Uni tubes. These vials feature robust materials, secure internal or external thread caps and racked formats for safe sealing, clear identification and compatibility with automated cryogenic systems.

Barcoded CryoBank systems from Thermo Scientific Nunc combine racked, 2D-coded vials with structured layouts in CryoExtra or CryoPlus freezers. This improves sample tracking, reduces picking errors and simplifies integration with LIMS and automation, helping biobanks and clinical labs meet regulatory and quality requirements.

Improve safety by wearing appropriate PPE, working in well-ventilated areas and using equipment with level monitoring or alarms, such as Thermo Scientific Locator and CryoExtra systems. Train staff in LN2 handling, label vessels clearly and use compatible racks and boxes to minimise breakage and accidental spills.
