    iP-TEC®

    Innovative labware for transporting live cells without freezing them

    Product Basics

    iP-TEC® labware is an innovative solution for transporting live cells without the need to freeze them. Currently, freezing cells for transport ensures their stability during transit. However, the thawing process can be stressful for cultured cells. Furthermore, the freeze-and-thaw process is time, labor, and material-intensive, increasing the risk of cell damage or destruction. iP-TEC® addresses these problems with a three-tiered packaging solution that maintains a healthy environment for cells during transportation.

    Technical Information

    Challenges in Cell Transportation

    There are risks and problems associated with transporting frozen cells, including cell damage, cost, and time. Various challenges also exist when transporting live cells. Factors such as temperature, pH, CO₂, and contamination can alter cells. Furthermore, to prevent bubbles and sloshing, which can stress and damage cells, an excessive amount of medium would be required, adding to unnecessary costs.

    Addressing the Challenges

    Existing Challenges iP-TEC® Solutions
    Temperature The optimal temperature of cell culture largely depends on the body temperature of the host. Temperature Stabilizer and insulated transportation box can maintain the temperature at 33-36 C for > 150 hours.
    Healthy Environment Cells have specific optimal environment. Each growth medium’s buffering system depends on CO₂ minute ventilation and bicarbonate concentrations to achieve proper pH and osmotic pressure. iP-TEC® system with CO₂ pack can maintain 5% CO₂ environment during transportation.
    Contamination
    /Leakage
    Lack of proper sealing can leads to contamination and leakage. Silicone rubber cover, complimented with iP-TEC® secondary containers provides proper seal.
    Medium Air in the container can cause sloshing, which results in shear force applied to cells. To avoid this, medium is used in excess to fill the container fully. The unique iP-TEC® Flask-25 requires about 55% less culture medium to fill to capacity compared to other 25cm² flasks.
    Variety There are various cell types, 3D tissues, and culture conditions iP-TEC® labware consists of various plates, flask and containers to address different type of cells and culture conditions.
