CryoMACS Freezing Bags
Make assurance double-sure
CryoMACS Freezing Bags consist of a freezing bag and a corresponding overwrap bag. Both bags are made of EVA. The overwrap bag provides extra security by protecting the freezing bag and the stored cellular product while maintaining sterility and preventing contamination risks during storage.1,2
Single sterile packaging for convenient handling
Each CryoMACS Freezing Bag and the corresponding overwrap bag is individually packed and sterilized by electron-beam irradiation. The outer packaging can be disinfected for easy clean-room handling. This helps to maintain a sterile workflow from cell collection to storage and subsequent thawing.
Advanced bag design
The CryoMACS Freezing Bags are made of an EVA tubular film with few welds for high durability. The design is optimized for complete drainage of the bags. The extra-long EVA tubing of the integrated filling assembly allows the user to prepare small samples for quality controls: simple heat sealing can separate filled tube sections. The spike ports are secured with sealed twist-off protective caps to prevent cross-contamination. The spike ports’ internal protection tube inhibits perforation of the freezing bag during removal of the thawed cell product.
