Episode Synopsis

Product Group Director Joe LaPorte offers insight into the differences between mechanically refrigerated air-phase cryogenic freezers and conventional LN2 liquid and vapor storage freezers. Joe discusses how air-phase temperatures are achieved, and how cost reductions rebalance the investment in long-term preservation of critical materials at temperatures safely below the -129°C recrystallization temperature of water.
