Laboratory freezers play a vital role in scientific and medical fields, particularly those capable of maintaining temperatures as low as -30°C. These specialised units are designed to preserve and store sensitive materials, ensuring their stability and usability for critical applications. Below, we explore some of the key uses of laboratory freezers set to -30°C and why they are indispensable in research and healthcare.
Laboratory freezers at -30°C are commonly used to store biological specimens such as:
Blood plasma (See our Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) Freezers range for this type of product storage)
Serum
Tissue samples
Microorganisms
The subzero environment prevents biochemical degradation, microbial growth, and other factors that could compromise the integrity of these samples.
Vaccines often require specific low-temperature conditions to maintain their efficacy. Freezers at -30°C are suitable for certain vaccines, offering a controlled environment to prevent spoilage and ensure that these life-saving treatments remain effective. See our range of Pharmacy Fridges for vaccine storage at 5°C.
Pharmaceutical companies rely on laboratory freezers at -30°C for stability testing. This process assesses how medications and raw materials hold up under prolonged low-temperature conditions, ensuring their safety and efficacy over time. See also our Temperature and Humidity range for this type of product testing.
In addition to healthcare, laboratory freezers are used in industrial and food testing applications, such as:
Preserving food samples for microbiological analysis
Conducting freeze-thaw stability tests on materials and ingredients
These tests help ensure that products meet stringent safety and quality standards.
Laboratory freezers are essential in R&D settings, where they store temperature-sensitive chemicals, reagents, and samples. The ability to maintain a consistent -30°C environment allows researchers to focus on innovation without worrying about sample degradation.
Reference materials used for calibration and quality control are often kept at -30°C. These materials must remain stable over extended periods to ensure accurate results in analytical procedures.
