Mini-Digitcool from IMV Technologies: controlled cryopreservation for your biological samples
The Mini-Digitcool from IMV Technologies is a controlled cooling freezer designed to meet the specific needs of laboratories, biobanks and cell therapy centres. This compact and ergonomic device offers a reliable and efficient solution for the cryopreservation of biological samples in CBS™ straws, cryogenic tubes and storage bags.
Thanks to its cutting-edge technology, the Mini-Digitcool allows precise control of all critical stages of the freezing process. It ensures constant temperature regulation, from -150°C to +50°C, to prevent thermal shocks that could damage cell membranes. The delicate stage of ice crystal formation is strictly controlled by powerful software that adjusts the freezing curve in real time to ensure optimal crystal size and protect cell integrity.
Equipped with the high-end Eurotherm 2704 controller, the Mini-Digitcool offers up to 20 freezing programmes and 99 different cooling speeds, allowing complete customisation of cycles according to sample types and research protocols. The dual temperature probe ensures continuous monitoring, both in the chamber and in the product, to guarantee perfect homogeneity.
The polished 304L stainless steel design and high-density polyurethane foam insulation provide excellent temperature retention and optimised liquid nitrogen consumption. The unit is also equipped with a sealed lid with a hermetic seal for maximum safety.
In terms of ergonomics, the Mini-Digitcool has been designed to simplify daily work in the laboratory: its racks are easy to stack and remove, cleaning is quick, and exhaust gases are vented from the rear of the unit for increased user comfort.
Traceability is at the heart of the Mini-Digitcool thanks to the Cryobiosoft software, which automatically records all freezing curves, provides secure user management in accordance with FDA regulations (21 CFR Part 11), and allows data to be exported for compliance with GLP and SOPs.
Compact, powerful and secure, the Mini-Digitcool is the ideal solution for facilities requiring reliable and reproducible cryopreservation of their biological samples.
