About the company

BioCision, LLC logo

BioCision, LLC

Our mission is to standardize pre-analytical sample handling. We develop and provide products that eliminate variability in common, often-overlooked, laboratory procedures. Our product lines are marketed globally through an extensive distributor network and have been readily adopted by the leading institutions in the biotech, pharmaceutical, clinical, diagnostic, academic and government scientific community.

Founded by a group of scientists, biomedical engineers, and drug discovery experts, our patent-pending products enable researchers to achieve pre-analytical sample reproducibility and consistency – experiment to experiment, lab to lab and site to site - and are applicable to a wide array of scientific disciplines including cell and tissue culture and cryopreservation, histology, immunohistochemistry, virus and bacterial research, molecular biology, cell therapy, pharmaceutical manufacturing, biofuels research and many others.

BioCision’s first products, the CoolRack® line, were made from a novel aluminum alloy that is 300 times more conductive than ice and adapts rapidly to the temperature of any freezing or cooling medium. The CoolRack® line includes thermo-conductive modules that hold tube or plate samples of different sizes to standardize temperature control right at the benchtop. Subsequent product lines include CoolBox™portable ice-free cooling and freezing devices and CoolCell®, a novel cell freezing device for blood, stem cells, cord blood and cell lines, as well as a line of TruCool™ consumables.

BioCision is entering into a new phase of novel product development collaboration with many distinguished companies and institutions in the area of sample handling and shipping. The company and its products were recently featured in SCIENCE, NATURE, and Genetic Engineering News.

BioCision is represented by the largest life science distributors in the world (Fisher Scientific, VWR International, Sanyo Biomedical) and many small regional distributors worldwide.
