In the field of assisted reproductive technology, maintaining optimal storage conditions is crucial for the preservation of gametes and embryos. Cryolab takes pride in offering high-quality storage vessels designed to meet the demanding requirements of IVF laboratories, ensuring the safe and efficient cryopreservation of biological samples.

Why Storage Vessels Matter in IVF

When it comes to IVF, storage vessels are an essential part of the process. These vessels are designed to preserve eggs, sperm, and embryos at extremely low temperatures using liquid nitrogen. The ability to maintain a stable, ultra-cold environment is critical to ensuring these delicate biological materials remain viable for future use.

How Storage Vessels Are Used in IVF

Storage vessels in IVF laboratories serve several key purposes:

Cryopreservation of Gametes and Embryos – Storage vessels maintain biological materials at -196°C using liquid nitrogen, ensuring their long-term preservation.

Sample Organisation and Retrieval – Advanced storage solutions include labelled racks and canisters to facilitate easy identification and retrieval of stored samples.

Minimising Temperature Fluctuations – Modern vessels are designed to provide stable temperature conditions to prevent sample degradation.

Safe Handling and Transport – Some vessels are specifically designed for the secure transportation of cryopreserved samples between clinics and laboratories while maintaining temperature integrity.

[Features of Cryolab’s Storage Vessels

The Cryolab CryoNest® Series of Racked LN2 Storage Tanks are designed to optimise efficiency, storage capacity, and ease of use. 

The Series includes three distinct models: CryoNest XL, CryoNest XXL, and CryoNest XXXL, each with a compact and versatile design that enables easy access to samples, maximises space, and significantly reduces storage costs per patient. 

All three models – ranging from 95-175 litres in size – can hold significantly more samples than a standard 47-litre tank, while maintaining an almost identical footprint. They also offer much longer hold times, ensuring optimal preservation of biological materials.]( https://cryolab.co.uk/?s=cryonest&post_type=product)

Choosing the Right Storage Vessel

Selecting the right storage vessel depends on various factors, including sample volume, available space, and frequency of use. Cryolab offers expert guidance to help IVF professionals choose the most suitable solution tailored to their specific requirements. Some key considerations include:

Storage Capacity – Selecting a vessel with sufficient storage space for the clinic’s needs.

Nitrogen Efficiency – Choosing a vessel with optimal liquid nitrogen consumption to maintain cost-effectiveness.

Security Features – Ensuring the vessel has appropriate monitoring and alarm systems to prevent accidental sample loss.
