Scientists often place cryogenic samples on dry ice during transport. However, research shows putting these samples on dry ice can warm them faster than exposure to room temperature.

Sustainability of biorepositories remains a concern as fail-safe commercial concepts for biorepository activities have not yet been developed. So how can they achieve long-term economic viability?

A sample tube is not just a tube - it is a potential revenue stream. The biological sample inside that tube could be the missing piece for a significant scientific breakthrough.

Bioactive leachables and extractables from plastic components can pose serious risks to the biomaterial stored in them.

Clinical samples are used to diagnose disease, guide treatment, and predict patient outcomes. They’re also important for drug discovery and development, where they can be used to track disease stages, look for biomarkers, and develop diagnostic assays.

Repurposing patient samples for multiple non-interventional research studies can maximize sample value and help address the industry-wide problem of patient recruitment.

Direct-to-consumer genomics in personalized medicine aims to provide customers with precise healthcare information based on individual data. But absolute confidence in individual sample integrity, identity, and quality is crucial.

The Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre in Australia works to discover and develop breakthrough personalized cancer medicines and targeted therapeutics.

Scientists from Duke University Medical Center in the US and the Fraunhofer Institute for Biomedical Engineering in Germany used Brooks’ XSD-48Pro as part of an automated GCLP-compliant system for HIV research.
