ThawSTAR CFT2 Automated Thawing Instrument
BCS-601
We frequently use primary tumor cells and blood cells for our experiment. Most of the time we get samples in a frozen vial. It is very crucial for us to get the maximum number of viable cells and in a standardized thawing method that reduces handling variation in the recovery.
Thawing frozen cells
Frozen cells in vial
We followed the recommended procedure that comes with the cell thawing system. The interesting part of the instrument is that it takes only 2 min and gives an alert sound 20 seconds before cells are ready for the next step.
Avoid using frozen vial contain 2ml medium
We observed the protocol to be standardized and across different hands, cells recovery rate was anywhere between 90-95% from vials.
