Remp, a Tecan Group company, announces that the first Remp repository for biological samples passed the final site acceptance test at Pfizer's facility in Groton, CT, USA

The Remp Bio-Sample Store is the first automated storage and retrieval system of its size to hold samples at -80C in combination with the famous Remp Tube Technology This unique and scalable system is based on proven and highly reliable sample storage concepts and is fully compatible with all other Remp products and consumables

The Remp Bio-Sample Store can be used for a wide range of research applications; such as, genomics, proteomics, tissue banking, glycerol stocks and long-term storage of enzymes and other stock solutions.

Additionally, there is the option to store samples at both -80C and -20C, within the same storage system, which allows for optimal storage conditions of temperature sensitive molecules such as DNA or antibodies.

This storage system for biological materials was developed jointly with Pfizer Global Research and Development, the R+D arm of Pfizer and is able to store millions of samples, concurrently, at -80C and -20C under controlled dry air conditions to prevent frost build up.

The Remp Bio-Sample Store is considered a new, highly innovative storage solution and is quickly being adopted within the fast growing biopharma market.
