ROTI^®Store cryo vials are ideal for preparing freezing stocks from different microorganisms, even DMSO-sensitive organisms. The stocks are protected by a special cryo medium during freezing.Optimally suited for cryopreservation of recombinant bacteria in genetic engineering.

To freeze, pipette and mix 0.5 ml fresh culture solution into a ROTI^®Store cryo vial. Remove the supernatant and freeze the vial. To recultivate, take one of the beads and inoculate the desired culture medium.

Store at -80 °C or in liquid nitrogen.Short-term storage for a few days at -20 °C is possible.Also suitable for conservation of marine microorganisms, even during field work (Siebert et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2004 (70) 5912-5).
