bacterial sample storage with nordic lab ULT freezers

Reliable sample storage

Ultra-low temperatures (ULTs), down to -86°C, provide an optimal environment for reliable sample storage to safeguard materials during clinical trials and scientific research.


Biological and biochemical sample storage:

Ultra-low temperatures (ULTs) effectively halt biological processes, preventing degradation and preserving the integrity of, for example: DNA and RNA, Proteins and enzymes, Cell cultures & Tissues and organ samples.

Without proper ultra-low temperature storage, biological materials can rapidly degrade, compromising research outcomes and long-term studies.

Biochemical samples, such as enzymes, metabolites, and antibodies, are highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations. At ULTs, biochemical reactions are effectively halted, preserving the molecular structure and function of sensitive compounds. This ensures that the samples remain stable and unchanged until future analysis.

In addition, ultra-low temperature storage inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that could contaminate or alter sample composition. Maintaining strict temperature control is essential for ensuring purity and reliability in applications such as: Drug development, Clinical research, pharmaceutical production, and Food safety testing.

By minimizing degradation and preventing contamination, ULT storage significantly extends the shelf life of biological and biochemical samples, enabling secure long-term preservation without compromising quality.


Bacterial samples:

ULT storage is an essential technique for the long-term preservation of bacterial samples. By freezing bacterial strains at temperatures as low as -86°C, researchers can maintain genetic integrity, prevent contamination, and ensure the viability of bacterial cultures for future use. ULTs effectively halt bacterial metabolic activity, preserving the viability of bacterial strains without the need for continuous culturing. This allows researchers to store bacterial cultures for extended periods without significant loss of function.
