Problems solved by technology

The problem with such containers is that they are only capable of maintaining samples at low temperatures for relatively modest periods of time and are not suitable for transport or storage over large time scales without frequent refilling of phase change cooling materials

Embodiment Construction

[0055] Broadly speaking, the present technology relates to shipping containers, and more particularly to transportable shipping containers that can be transported from one location to another by standard road, air, and rail freight and can be transported at their destination Store and use in a normal room (eg, operating room). To ensure portability, it is preferred that the shipping containers described herein are less than or equal to 1.5 m high (ie have a height < 1.5 m).

[0056] In an embodiment, the shipping container may include an insulative housing defining a cavity for receiving i) a replaceable phase change material cartridge and ii) a sample to be cryopreserved. The housing may be in any suitable shape and formed from any suitable material. Additionally, the shipping container can be characterized as including a thermal diode operable in a first state to provide cooling to the cavity and in a second state to attenuate heat transfer into the cavity. The thermal dio...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a shipping container for cryopreserved biological samples in which a cryopreserved sample can be maintained on arrival at its destination for a period of time, for example several months.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a transport container for cryopreserved samples (e.g. biological samples) in which the cryopreserved samples can be maintained for an extended period of time (e.g. months) upon arrival at their destination, And it may also be used for controlled rate freezing and thawing. The containers of the present invention can also be used to transport other types of samples requiring refrigerated storage without the use of conventional freezing materials such as liquid nitrogen or solid carbon dioxide. Background technique [0002] Cryopreservation is a technique for preserving biological samples that involves cooling the sample to very low temperatures (eg, -78.5°C to -196°C) and maintaining the sample at that temperature for prolonged periods of time. By cooling the biological sample to a low temperature, the kinetics of chemical or enzymatic reactions that would otherwise degrade the sample are slowed to such an extent that th...
