Managed by scientists, for scientists, BioGrad Biobank offers scalable, secure storage designed specifically for organisations engaged in clinical and biomedical research. Established to meet the growing need for centralised specimen storage, BioGrad Biobanking combines rigorous operational protocols with expert scientific oversight to ensure risk-aware handling and full traceability at every stage. This meticulous approach guarantees safe and efficient storage, even for the most sensitive sample types.
Our flexible storage solutions include manual ULT freezers and vapour-phase liquid nitrogen systems, making us an ideal partner for managing legacy biological specimen collections. Combined with on-site laboratories and technical expertise, we can also support you in optimising your collection – delivering measurable cost and CO2 emission efficiencies over time.
Legacy Sample Storage- Free up space without compromising your research
Running out of room, but not yet finished with your legacy samples? We offer secure, long-term storage at -80 °C or in vapour-phase liquid nitrogen, ensuring your historical collections are preserved and accessible whenever needed.
Back-Up Sample Storage– Protect your research from unexpected failures
Worried about freezer breakdowns disrupting your studies? Our back-up sample storage provides an added layer of protection. Store duplicates of key specimens with us for peace of mind, knowing your samples are securely monitored and always retrievable.
Collection optimisation services – Streamline and future-proof your sample storage
Ideal for clinical and diagnostic collections requiring long-term storage, our optimisation service helps you take control of your sample management. Whether you’re looking to prepare your collection for automated storage systems or need support with reconciliation and cataloguing, we take care of the detail – so you can focus on the science, knowing your samples are in safe hands.
Sample commercialisation service – Unlock the value of your biospecimens
With our in-house commercial Research Tissue Bank, we offer specialist support in monetising biological collections. Through a collaborative revenue-sharing model, we help you turn underutilised samples into a sustainable source of income – funding that can be reinvested into your ongoing or future research programmes.
Our ULT freezers maintain stable cryogenic conditions to prevent degradation of sensitive biological materials, including:
All systems are electronically monitored and regularly calibrated to ensure regulatory compliance and operational excellence.
For long-term storage of fragile cell lines, tissues, and biological specimens, our vapour-phase LN₂ systems offer reliable preservation under tightly controlled conditions—with the same rigorous monitoring and quality control as our ULT facilities.
Whether you’re ready to expand your storage capacity, back up critical samples, or explore commercialisation, we’re here to help.
Contact our team to discuss your requirements or to book a tour of our facilities. We’ll provide tailored recommendations and transparent pricing to support your organisation’s research goals—now and into the future.
