Cryolab's Cryogenic Solutions for Poultry and Aquatic Cryopreservation

CHICHESTER, U.K. - April 10, 2025 - PRLog -- Cryopreservation has become an indispensable tool in both agricultural and biomedical industries, particularly for poultry and aquatic species. From preserving genetic diversity to supporting large-scale aquaculture, the ability to safely store and transport biological materials at ultra-low temperatures plays a vital role. Cryolab's cutting-edge cryogenic technologies, including the CryoNest® LN₂ Storage Series and CryoStork® Dry Shipper Series, offer unmatched reliability and innovation for these critical applications.

Preserving Poultry Genetics: Chickens and Ducks

In the poultry sector, the cryopreservation of chicken and duck sperm, embryos, and primordial germ cells (PGCs) is essential to safeguarding genetic resources and enhancing selective breeding programs. As poultry producers look to maintain valuable genetic lines or revive heritage breeds, Cryolab's CryoNest® LN₂ Storage Tanks offer the ideal solution for long-term storage. These vessels provide stable temperatures of –196°C, critical for maintaining sample viability.

Transporting these materials between hatcheries or research centres is equally crucial. With Cryolab's CryoStork® Dry Shippers, fertilised eggs, semen samples, or cryopreserved embryos can be moved securely without compromising the cold chain. Built for safety and longevity, these dry shippers ensure compliance with international transport standards for biological specimens.

Enabling Biomedical Innovation: Zebrafish Research

Zebrafish have become a cornerstone species in genetics and biomedical research due to their transparent embryos and rapid development. Laboratories worldwide rely on cryopreservation to maintain diverse genetic strains without continuous breeding.

Cryolab supports this effort with compact, highly insulated CryoNest® tanks suitable for lab use. Researchers can rely on low LN₂ evaporation rates and extended hold times for sample longevity. Additionally, the CryoStork® Dry Shipper Series offers secure sample transfers between research facilities, even across continents, ensuring that zebrafish embryos and sperm arrive in perfect condition.

Advancing Aquaculture: Salmon and Shrimp Preservation

In aquaculture, salmon sperm cryopreservation is used to enhance selective breeding, reduce disease risks, and improve hatchery efficiency. Likewise, shrimp farming benefits from sperm and embryo cryopreservation to stabilise production and improve biosecurity in hatcheries.

Cryolab's CryoNest® Series provides high-capacity, racked storage for large-scale aquaculture operations, allowing the organisation of thousands of samples in a single unit. These tanks feature vacuum insulation technology and safety systems to ensure maximum reliability. (https://cryolab.co.uk/product-category/cryolab-cryonest-s...)

When samples need to be shipped between hatcheries or exported, the CryoStork® Dry Shippers provide optimal cryogenic conditions using LN₂ vapour phase technology. Optional data loggers help monitor internal temperatures in real-time, delivering peace of mind and full traceability during transit.
