Rita Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Iwas wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a cold waterbath to be used to thaw FFP when making cryoprecipitate. Thanks for any responses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathervaught Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 We purchased a Thermo cryobath. In the Operator's Instructions, it states that if you intend to use the cryobath below a certain temperature that you should use an antifreeze solution in the circulating water to prevent ice from forming in the pumps. This is especially of concern when the cryobath is emptied and re-filled, because the water that flows through the cooling system is exposed to temperatures below freezing in order to achieve cooling to the desired temperature. We keep our re-fill water stored in the refrigerator so that we avoid that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
