Products
Dri•Bank System
A container-based system for rapid desiccation and room-temperature preservation of biological samples; includes a replaceable desiccant cartridge and accessories to hold slides and tubes.
Atacama Cartridge
Replaceable desiccant cartridge sized for the container to remove water (moisture) from the container interior.
Atacama-C Cartridge (5-pack)
Multi-pack of cartridges formulated to remove CO2 (and VOCs) in addition to moisture to reduce carbonic acid formation during shipping with dry ice.
Atacama
A desiccant cartridge that fits into the Dri•Bank® container to swiftly desiccate biological samples for non-fixative, non-cryogenic room temperature preservation based on the anhydrobiosis concept.
Atacama-C® Cartridge
A specially designed desiccant cartridge that functions like the standard Atacama® cartridge with the added capability of absorbing CO2 and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Dri•Bank Container
An ambient biospecimen preservation and shipping system designed for room temperature storage and cold-chain-free transport of biological samples such as fecal samples, RNA, and blood serum.
