INTRODUCING THE LATEST IN CRYO AUTOMATION

Meet the Azenta Cryo Store Pico 

Cryogenic Automation That Fits Anywhere

Automated cryogenic storage is the wave of the future – and the surest way to ensure you’re keeping your samples (and staff) safe while working more efficiently. Automation reduces the risk of samples being repeatedly exposed to ambient temperatures, and helps you keep accurate chain-of-custody records. But current R&D (and clinical) spaces don’t always have room for the type of equipment that makes automation happen.

That’s all changing with the new Azenta Cryo Store Pico™ – a space-efficient automated cryogenic storage system that offers increased sample protection, integrity, and traceability along with labware flexibility. Keep your most precious samples safe.

At under 8 feet high, the Cryo Store Pico™ fits within standard elevators, through standard 32-inch doors, and in standard height rooms. No on-site construction or modifications are required​ to get the Cryo Store Pico™ operational in your space. The vending machine-like profile means it fits neatly into any public-facing space and puts sample access quickly (and securely) in the hands of staff.

Panel Discussion

Lunchtime Workshop, Room 1A

Monday, February 27, 2023, 12-1 pm

Considerations and Challenges in Sample Storage and Automation

This lunchtime session will include a dynamic presentation about the latest innovations in automated sample storage and cryopreservation followed by a panel discussion with Azenta experts and other industry leaders who will answer questions about best practices in sample management and biosample integrity. Here’s your chance to ask your burning questions about keeping your samples cool!

From the effects of the freeze-thaw cycle to transient warming to cold chain management, you’ll gain insights about the most effective methods used in cryopreservation and sample management. 

The opening discussion on automation will be led by Erica Waller, Azenta Product Manager for Cryo Freezers Product Development, followed by 30 minutes of panel Q&A. A box lunch will be provided.

Panel members include:

  • Erica Waller, Product Manager, Cryo & Stores Management, Azenta
  • Kathi Shea, VP of Repository and Innovation, Azenta
  • Sue Holland-Crimmin, Ph.D., Scientific Advisor and SLAS Board of Directors

Harnessing the Power of Multiomics from a Single Sample with ​Advanced Automation for Sample Handling and Processing ​

The omics era has greatly expanded the repertoire of approaches available for researchers and clinicians to unravel the complexity underpinning human health: Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) approaches can characterize genomes, epigenomes, transcriptomes and proteomes. Advanced DNA barcoding and automated microfluidics can take this to the next level, enabling multiomic characterization of single cells. This 25-minute presentation details a workflow that uses automated sample handling and processing of primary blood to do a multiomic analysis of a single draw of blood, covering genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics. Track: Omics, Session: New Technologies in Omics, Abstract #: 1343123

Short Course

Kathi Shea, VP Repository and Innovation, Azenta

Sunday, Feb. 26, 2023
8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

Sample Management: Best Practice, Trends and Challenges

This course will provide current standards considered best practice in the discipline of sample management. It will focus on the traditional aspects of compound management (including how to maintain and measure quality of compounds). Recognizing the importance of biologics in drug discovery, the course will also cover biological reagents and best practice in biobanking and clinical sample management. Course topics include: Small Molecule, Biological and Clinical Sample Management, Cold-chain Management, Quality Management, Technology, Lean Six Sigma, and Cold Chain.

New Innovations in Automated Instrumentation

Stop by our booth to be the first to see these exciting new products

IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY WITH AUTOMATED SEPTUM DECAPPING/CAPPPING

IntelliXcapTM Automated Septum Cap Decapper/Recapper

This high-speed whole rack tube decapper and capper automatically removes, recaps, or disposes of septum caps from a full 96-format SBS rack of sample storage tubes. Using the system for secure storage tube sealing eliminates the need for manual intervention and preserves sample integrity for use within high throughput environments such as in biobanking, compound libraries, and other storage applications.

  • Fully automated decapping and capping of septum seals with 96 format tubes
  • Additional capping module available for uncapped tubes from septum seal cap mats
  • No requirement for compressed air for flexible use within the lab
  • Compatibility with a wide range of 96 format tubes and septum seals from multiple manufacturers
  • Can be used as standalone or integrated into automated systems with external robotics
