Biotech Values

[OakesCS]

Patching the various responses together, it sounds like the shipped vials contain only solid (not surprising at << -40 C). I have my doubts that -40 vs -70 degC would make much difference for hydrolysis. H2O vapor pressure would be minuscule in either case. Based on the NYT article linked by Biowatch, sounds more like there is a oxidation/light sensitivity since they refer to freezer doors only being opened 2x day. If that’s the case seems like hooking up an Ar purge system to non -80deg freezers might be simple, cheap way of extending distribution/availability.
