Biobanking - Off Site Sample Storage
MTS Cryo Stores
are an accredited off site sample storage facility, with 10 years
history we first ran under the banner of our mother company “Cool Repair
UK” storing specimens for universities, government, biotechnology and
pharmaceutical companies. We are an original European company based in
the heart of the UK, we are not the largest company in the industry but
this is compensated for by the personal and dedicated touch of our
enthusiastic team making us a popular choice for biobanking services.
We have the capacity to store your important archived samples in our 2
million samples storage facility at temperatures ranging from ambient
to -150°C in mechanical refrigeration units; and also -196°C is
available with Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) storage.

Bio Banking - Biological Storage Services
We
understand the limitations of physical storage space required to
centralise your study specimens. Utilising off-site sample storage
increases your laboratory workspace and increases the security
of your samples for both temperature and access, enabling you to
make more productive use of your valuable resources. By reducing the
amount of freezers you reduce the risk of equipment failure and the
associate costing . This service is also for the smaller user who just
wants to secure his research and not lose samples due to equipment
failure. To address this need, we offer the option of a comprehensive
specimen storage management service at our facility with ItemTrackerŪ
our sample tracking software which is developed to solve the challenges
associated with specimen management, so in simple terms we know where
and what your samples are.

• High-security environment including access control system, motion detectors, smoke detectors, and CCTV surveillance
• Guaranteed temperature integrity with continuous monitoring by both electronic and paper chart recording
