Mr Frosty containers provide expanded tube compatibility

The Thermo Scientific Nalgene Mr Frosty series of freezing containers now accommodates 3.6, 4.5 and 5.0ml cryotubes.

Designed for use with Thermo Scientific Nunc and Nalgene cryogenic storage tubes, the Mr Frosty freezing containers enable simple cooling of samples at an optimal rate of –1°C per minute. Requiring only isopropyl alcohol and a mechanical –70 to –80°C freezer, the containers are suitable for any laboratory requiring cost-effective and repeatable cryopreservation of cells.

The Mr Frosty freezing containers feature reusable devices for cooling biological samples at the recommended controlled cooling rate. With units and inserts available for 1, 1.2, 1.8, 2, 3.6, 4.5 and 5ml tubes, they provide the widest tube compatibility currently available, says the US company.
