Micronic has added a Modular Vertical Freezer Rack to its range of sample storage accessories for biobanking.
The rack provides a flexible and low cost solution for organising sample storage in a chest freezer. The modular storage system fits into all chest freezers and is fully compatible with all ANSI/SLAS standard footprint storage racks.
The system can be set up simply by clicking individual rack holders (height: 68mm) together to construct a tower of up to 15 holders.
Each rack holder has the capacity to house a single Micronic storage rack (Roborack-96, Comorack-96, Comorack-24 and Arctic Rack-24).
When using the Micronic Loborack-96 with a low profile cover, one rack holder accommodates two Loboracks, providing a space saving storage solution.
Manufactured from a durable high grade plastic - Micronic Modular Vertical Freezer Racks are constructed for long-term storage at ultra-low temperatures.
Compared to storing samples in an upright freezer, chest freezers are often more energy efficient because of better cold air retention.
They are also less expensive to purchase and tend to have longer life cycles than upright models.
