To set up a compliant IVF laboratory in the UK, you will need:
(1) LN2 storage tanks -minimum 2 tanks for redundancy, sized to your programme volume
(2) Cryogenic dry shippers for sample transport between clinics
(3) Consumables -0.25ml and 0.5ml cryogenic straws, CBS vitrification kits, goblets, canisters, and cryovials
(4) A controlled-rate freezer if using slow-freezing protocols
(5) Temperature monitoring and alarm system
(6) PPE -cryo gloves, face shields, protective aprons
(7) LN2 supply contract with a reputable UK gas supplier.
Cryolab supplies all of the above and can advise on capacity planning for your patient volume
