Hi Histonetters,
I need some advice as my group is tasked to procure tissue from surgery sites
off-campus. Logistics within those other hospitals
do not allow a liquid nitrogen source, and my health and safety folks have
asked us to consider using a "Dry Shippers" or cryoport for snap
freezing. Does anyone do this?
We are concerned that the vapor alone would be insufficient to preserve RNA,
DNA, and morphology.
We currently use a dewar for liquid nitrogen preservation, but it does not
involve the whole 'transport issue'.
Research or hospital perspectives are welcome.
Thanks in advance and have a good week.
