Green Your Lab.
Plug-in equipment, including freezers, constitutes a large percentage of lab energy use. As storage needs for research and back-up samples increase, sample repositories are requiring more energy than ever.
There is an increased urgency to adopt environmentally sustainable practices in the lab. Decreasing a lab's dependency on freezers is a logical starting place to decrease consumption. The challenge is to "green" the research lab without compromising results.
A Green Solution for Sample Storage
Biomatrica offers a suite of sample stability products that allow you to store your samples at room temperature instead of relying on cold chain storage. Our room-temperature stability products stabilize and protect your samples, giving you research results that you can trust. Additionally, your samples are protected against the adverse impacts of ultra-cold storage conditions.
We currently offer room temperature stability products for the following sample types:
- RNA
- DNA
- Clones
Improving the sustainability of your lab doesn't have to be a compromise. Reduce your energy consumption, reduce your carbon footprint, and optimize your lab space without sacrificing the quality of your biological samples as highlighted in the figure at right.
A major university has completed an evaluation of Biomatrica's system to increase sustainability on campus. Adoption of Biomatrica's room temperature system is forecasted to result in a 18,000 ton CO2 reduction in carbon footprint over 10 years.
