Streamlined Sample Management in a Centralized Freezer Farm
The institute required a solution for managing its samples and standardizing their biobanking process across 20+ user groups, while centralizing the management of 40+ freezers into a new facility. The solution needed to support tracking and data transfer for the biobank’s various sample types stored in a wide range of containers, including but not limited to cryovials, cryoboxes, and sample bags at ultralow temperatures.
Bluechiip’s unique advanced sample management solution met the institute’s needs allowing seamless automated digitization, removing manual transcription.
Intelligent Inventory Management of Clinical Samples and Reagents from +4°C to -196°C
The facility required a solution to track inventory of clinical samples, down to the cryovial level, moving them into and out of their automated LN2 storage system and -80C mechanical freezers. The system also had to support automated tracking of reagents and other sample inventories stored in other -20C and 4C freezers.
Bluechiip's unique advanced sample management solution met the facility's needs, allowing seamless automated updates of sample data and location at the freezer, eliminating manual tracking and logs across all temperatures and delivering complete control of critical inventories.
Streamlined Storage Management and Auditing of Cryobag Cassette Inventories in Ultralow Temperature Freezers
The facility needed a complete storage solution for frozen viral vectors stored in cryogenic cassettes in -80C Freezers. The previous approach made it difficult to locate samples, with operators sometimes spending hours or days manually searching through freezers. Manual sample tracking meant quarterly inventory audits were labor intensive, often lasting weeks and involving multiple groups of people.
Bluechiip’s unique advanced sample management solution has dramatically simplified storage of cassettes and racks, providing real-time visibliity and control of sample locations, leading to significant efficiency gains in sample retrieval and auditing
