Webinar: Streamline Your Workflow with Advanced Cryopreservation

This webinar introduces a scalable and customizable approach for cell banking services, specifically for cell lines and primary hepatocytes, preserved as adherent monolayers in well plates, cryovials and imaging formats.

 

Watch our webinar titled "Faster, Better, Simpler: Advanced Cryopreservation for Assay-Ready Biologics" to discover the latest advancements in cryopreservation technology and how they streamline the process of preparing assay-ready biologics. 

Webinar Overview

Cell culture is a cornerstone of biomedical research and drug development, but it faces significant challenges, including limited bandwidth in the lab, long lead times for cell expansion, variable quality and consistency of cell assay performance over time.

Cryopreservation offers a viable solution by enabling the long-term storage and transportation of cells at ultra-low temperatures, effectively preventing phenotypic changes over time. However, cryopreserving adherent monolayer cells, which are widely used in research, remains a challenge.

Conventional techniques using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) often result in low cell recovery rates (<35%) and significant well-to-well variability, limiting research consistency and hindering laboratory automation. Additionally, cryoprotectants that work well in larger well plates often do not perform effectively in smaller well plates due to supercooling issues.

This webinar introduces a scalable and customizable approach for cell banking services, specifically for cell lines and primary hepatocytes, preserved as adherent monolayers in well plates, cryovials and imaging formats. By utilizing polyampholytes or ice nucleators to reduce cryo-injury, we achieved high post-thaw cell recovery rates (>80%) with minimal variability between wells. This approach significantly reduces the time and resources required for routine cell culture, thereby enhancing the efficiency and productivity of screening assays.
