Patent Application Titled "Handling And Tracking Of Biological Specimens For Cryogenic Storage" Published Online (USPTO 20240120040).

A patent application titled "Handling And Tracking Of Biological Specimens For Cryogenic Storage" has been published online. The patent application addresses concerns related to the storage, identification, management, and retrieval of biological specimens used in various procedures, such as cryopreservation. The inventors propose a method, software, and apparatus for handling and tracking these specimens, including generating a procedure data structure (PDS) that binds identifiers, indicators, and other information related to the specimen and the procedure. The PDS can be displayed on a graphical user interface, and updates can be made to indicate the actual time of the procedure, the operator, and the condition of the specimen. The updated PDS can be stored in a database along with other completed procedures. This invention aims to improve the handling and tracking of biological specimens for cryogenic storage and various procedures involving these specimens. [Extracted from the article]
