ThawSTAR™ Automated Thawing System by BioCision, LLC

ThawSTAR™ automated thawing system addresses the last gap in the cell cryopreservation workflow: cell thawing. Replacing common methods of cell thawing such as swirling frozen vials in communal water baths and warming vials between hands - methods that are not standardized and potentially jeopardize the integrity and safety of the sample - ThawSTAR ensures rapid, consistent and reproducible thawing.

Standardized cell thawing and recovery

Utilizing patent-pending STAR™ sensing technology, ThawSTAR thawing system employs multiple detection mechanisms to determine vial temperature, phase change initiation, and thaw completion. Hands-free operation eliminates the guess work and subjectivity of determining the thawing end point. Highly reproducible thermal profiles mirror those obtained from a water bath without the variability and risk of contamination. Ideal for thawing cells or other biospecimens and accepts vials from -80°C freezers or LN2 storage.
