Storage and Shipping Information
Storage ConditionsEndoGRO HUVEC are sold as cryopreserved ampoules. To maintain the cells’ integrity, unpack the products immediately upon receipt. The cryopreserved cells should be placed in the liquid or gas phase of a liquid nitrogen dewar for storage.

Long-term storage of the ampoule must be in a liquid nitrogen dewar or a mechanical freezer designed for cryopreserved cell storage that maintains a temperature below -135°C.

Millipore recommends storing the cryopreserved vials in liquid nitrogen vapor phase. Handle cryopreserved vials with caution. Always wear eye protection and gloves when working with cell cultures. Aseptically vent any nitrogen from cryopreserved vials in a biosafety cabinet prior to thawing the vials in a water bath.
