    Kitazato’s state-of-the-art cooling rack is designed to hold liquid nitrogen during vitrification procedures. Available in two separate sizes to best suit your needs, the cooling rack is combined with a stainless-steel interior insert which can be sterilized. Optional lids for the cooling rack to prevent liquid nitrogen from evaporating are available separately.

    1 unit, optional lid sold separately

    • Small cooling rack is ideal for conservative use of liquid nitrogen (20 X 11 X 11 cm).
    • Large cooling rack allows for improved handling of vitrification devices (34 X 12.5 X 11 cm).
    • Stainless steel interior container allows for easy sterilization prior to use.
  • The Kitazato Cryotop® is a vitrification device for use in the storage of human oocytes and embryos. The device itself consists of a fine strip of transparent film attached to a plastic handle. Specimens with a minimum volume of 0.1 µl can be loaded into the device for vitrification. Cooling and warming rates of -23,000 ºC/minute and 42,000 ºC/minute respectively can be achieved by using the Cryotop® device, leading to superior oocyte and embryo survival rates.

    • Diamond tip allows for easy insertion into the cover straw and handle is nitrogen-resistant
    • Identification marks define which side to load specimens, and enable quick identification during thawing
    • Up to four specimens can be loaded per device without impacting survival or reproductive potential
    • Small device size maximizes storage space in cryo-tanks
    • Available in five colours for easy identification
    • SAL, endotoxin and MEA tested
  • The Kitazato Oocyte Cryoplate is an innovative tool designed for the efficient completion of the equilibration process in oocyte cryopreservation. This dish allows the entire cryopreservation procedure to be performed on a single platform, significantly enhancing the efficiency and consistency of the process. Each dish comes clearly labeled with the necessary protocol details, such as type, volume, and time, effectively minimizing operational errors and ensuring adherence to consistent procedures. In addition to its streamlined design, the Cryoplate is engineered to maintain the equilibration conditions of cryopreservation solution consistently, leading to stable and reliable results. The inclusion of a grooved lid for securing the Cryotop further enhances operability, simplifying the handling process. The Kitazato Cryoplate represents a blend of convenience, precision, and reliability, making it a valuable asset for professionals in the field of cryopreservation.
