Recently, a science and innovation center in the Yangtze River Delta was officially inaugurated. Serving as a "bridge between scientific research and clinical practice," its biobank, which stores over 10 million samples, has established a robust "safety line" for sample preservation for the medical research of Zhejiang Province.
The Science and Innovation Center is the largest and most advanced open scientific research platform among regional medical institutions. It has established a comprehensive, full-chain scientific research system, with its 10-million-sample biobank serving as the "core hub" of the entire center.
According to the person in charge, the center can accommodate 10 million biological samples and is equipped with an intelligent operating system featuring a fully automated assembly line, ensuring precise and secure storage for every sample. By leveraging the expertise of leading scientists from both domestic and international institutions, the center promotes scientific research development in hospitals and throughout Zhejiang Province, ultimately translating findings back into clinical practice to benefit patients.
Meanwhile, the "openness" of the science and innovation center underscores its vision: several joint research centers, both domestic and international, are about to be established. This "scientific research platform" is becoming a vital "link" connecting local and global resources, as well as bridging basic research and clinical applications.
Biological samples are the "source of vitality" for medical research, while ultra-low and cryogenic environments, along with stable storage conditions, are essential to preserving sample viability and ensuring data accuracy.
Genepoint offers technical support for the long-term preservation and efficient management of samples through automated storage solutions, establishing a reliable sample foundation for subsequent research on disease mechanisms and personalized treatment.
- Automated Rapid Access: One-click sample access and dual-mode, one-second switching enable the freezer to serve dual purposes.
- Dedicated Storage Space: Three-level account authority assignment; support for multi-user collaborative management.
- Safety Redundancy Design: Dual-stage cascade refrigeration system with comprehensive recording and backup of operational and alarm logs.
- Scalability and Adaptability: The modular system design supports scaling from hundreds of thousands of samples to 10 million samples.
- Advanced Human-Machine Collaboration: Automated rotation and positioning of freezing racks, flexible automatic lid opening, and sampling at any suspended height.
- Convenient Operation: Features automatic defogging without the use of liquid nitrogen and enables rapid storage through rack separation and lifting, thereby improving operational efficiency.
- Low-Loss Storage: The narrow-necked tank design ensures a uniform storage temperature and reduces long-term operating costs.
- Intelligent Monitoring System: Provides real-time monitoring of liquid nitrogen levels and tank temperature, supporting remote traceability and data export.
In the future, with the ongoing application of scientific research achievements from the Science and Innovation Center and the sustained unlocking of the "data value" of the 10-million-level biobank, regional medical research will embrace broader prospects. Each carefully preserved biological sample provides a powerful impetus toward the goal of "safeguarding people's health."
Taking this cooperation as an opportunity, Genepont will continue to provide innovative and automated low-temperature preservation solutions for biological samples, making advanced technologies a bridge between "laboratories" and "hospital beds," and accelerating the translation of scientific research achievements into clinical applications.
