Hello scientist friends! If we set -80C freezers to -70C, it saves 30% energy & prolongs compressor life, w minimal sample issues. Consider chilling up! https://greenlab.mit.edu/cold-storage @UMassMedGreen @HarrisVitiligo @MishaRosenbach @SBowersMD @VirusesImmunity @Kahlenberglab @DrvanTilburg
There may not be a universal approach. -70 to conserve energy, -80 to eliminate variables in exp procedures, reg maintenance of the freezer, sample management, etc. All have opportunity for efficiency.
