Maintaining controlled storage conditions can be challenging due to factors such as:
Equipment Maintenance: Regular monitoring and maintenance of storage equipment like refrigerators, freezers, and humidity controls are essential to prevent malfunctions. Power Outages: Uninterrupted power supply is critical to maintain storage conditions. Backup generators and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) are often used as safeguards. Human Error: Proper training and adherence to protocols are necessary to minimize the risk of human errors in handling and storing samples.
