In general experiments, we usually store uncommonly used cells in liquid nitrogen, but store commonly used cells in freezer. Generally speaking Most of the cells can be stored at -80 degrees for three months with the addition of cryopreservation medium,At the same time, the survival rate can generally be maintained above 80%. The survival rate of the cells will decrease if stored over 6 months in -80 freezer, and the activity after loading will also be very low, So  it is recommended to store cells in liquid nitrogen if the cells will not be used in three months

 

 

Does the Cell must be stored in liquid nitrogen?
