Large sample collections come with a large amount of information. And those housed in biobanks must be stored with a unique identifier in both barcode and human readable form.

Maintaining an unbroken cold chain for precious cell therapy products is vital for cell survival, product viability, and ultimately – therapeutic success.

Moving office locations can be an arduous task for any business. But it is often a particularly complex undertaking for pharmaceutical companies.

Regulatory laws that govern storage and transport differ from country to country. So, expertise in international sample logistics is as important as accurate sample tracking and temperature control to prevent unfortunate delays and sample loss during shipment.

In the cell therapy field, stem cells require a temperature-controlled, cold-chain transport system.

A centralized plan for sample management handles the lifecycle of each sample in your collection. It gives you one platform to minimize risk, reduce costs, improve sample quality – and gain remarkable efficiencies.

Despite multiple issues, using printed or handwritten labels which are then stuck to sample tubes, is commonplace. Damaged, lost, or unreadable sample tube labels are just a few of the issues that create problems for busy labs handling a large volumes of samples.

As research teams seek treatments for a growing number of diseases, the volume of samples in storage continues to increase. Exponentially in some cases. So consolidation is crucial.
