Abstract

— Sample retention is a standard process ensuring that potential issues encountered in the future can be analyzed using the retained samples. Floor space, cabinets and continuous nitrogen supply are required making sample retention economically challenging. Herein, we present a simple solution to reduce the floor space and cabinet space requirement, and nitrogen supply cost resulting in a 30 kUSD cost avoidance. The solution eliminates the use of trays where the units are placed by utilizing Gel-paks, where the space requirement is reduced by around 25 %, and the unit allocation is increased by around 135 % for a given space
