[Histonet] RE: Freezer for tissue storage

[Tony Henwood (SCHN)]

Hi Richard,

I prefer Upright freezers and we have an excellent track record with the Sanyo VIP Freezer (one of our Sanyo low temp freezers is 15 years old and still working with no problems).

I need a recommendation for a -80 degree C. freezer for storing tissue specimens.  Do you prefer upright vs. chest?  Thanks.
