Stem cells are cells with the ability to self-replicate and differentiate into multiple directions. Under certain conditions, they can differentiate into cells with multiple functions and have the ability to repair various tissue functions and regenerate organs. Therefore, they are also called "universal cells." Such important stem cells can only play a greater role if they are preserved intact.
Stem cell storage tanks are a common storage method for preserving stem cells. Using liquid nitrogen to place stem cells in a low-temperature environment can effectively extend the storage time and maintain their vitality and function.
Since different users have different amounts of stored stem cells, there are three storage tanks to choose from:
1. For liquid phase storage of hundreds or thousands of stem cells, YDS series aviation aluminum liquid nitrogen tanks can be selected;
2. For gas phase storage of thousands of stem cells, small gas-liquid phase stem cell storage tanks can be used, which are also made of aviation aluminum;
3. If the number of stem cells exceeds 10,000, it is more appropriate to use a gas phase stem cell storage tank.
Each of these stem cell storage tanks has its own advantages. Liquid phase storage can maintain a constant temperature of -196°C, but they lack intelligent management. The small gas-liquid phase storage tank is a mini version of the YDD storage tank. It has the same gas-liquid phase dual mode, intelligent management of samples, automatic replenishment and alarm. In addition, the use of aviation aluminum materials with stronger thermal insulation and lighter weight also combines the advantages of YDS.
Therefore, when storing stem cells, you must choose an appropriate storage tank based on the number of cells and storage method.
