Boreas Monitoring Solutions

Our first scientific study of the year at HQ is complete and we could not be more excited about the results! 🎉 We placed our weight-based monitoring system & a dual temperature probe on a retired tank and measured the alarm response time as the tank began to fail. We knew our system would pick it up sooner. We built the CryoScout™ because we knew there was a better way to monitor tanks. We knew from 80+ years of experience and other scientific studies published that a temperature probe simply does not give you enough time to save a failing tank. Previous to this test, we expected our system would pick up a tank failure about 18 hours ahead of a temperature probe. We were wrong. The CryoScout picked it up 84 hours sooner than the temperature probe. That’s 3.5 days. That’s the ability to be proactive vs. reactive when an alarm goes off. That’s peace of mind. #tanksyourewelcome #cryopreservation #ivf 

If IVF exists because of cutting-edge technology, why aren’t we monitoring our tanks better? We loved this episode of Inside Reproductive Health because that question was a guiding principle in building our weight-based monitoring system. “There's a patented weight-sensing device out now that we highly support because it's very predictive of the liquid nitrogen evaporation rate. The weight-sensing device technology that I think really is the future,” as described by Dr. Steven Katz. And Dr. Eva Schenkman, MS, PhD, CC/ALD/ELD/HCLD is right – our system can predict a tank failure weeks or months before temperature sensors or level sensors alone would. IVF patients deserve clinics that seek the best technology, ask the hard questions, and invest in them as deeply as they've invested in their fertility care. #cryopreservation

Our CEO, William Baird, spotted on Midwest Reproductive Symposium International's page! 👀 We love getting our hands on liquid nitrogen at conferences – nothing beats showing people in real-time how fast our monitoring system detects the shift from liquid to vapor-phase nitrogen. #cryopreservation #tanksyourewelcome

Big thanks to gasworld US for this feature! 🙌 From small volume to large volume tanks – and every precious sample you're storing – we've got you covered with the safest, most reliable tank monitoring system ever made. #tanksyourewelcome #cryopreservation

Over the past year, we’ve heard from countless labs in the ART and Life Science fields that a better monitoring solution is needed for their large tanks. Our flagship product, the CryoScout™, was built to provide a safer, more reliable monitoring system for small volume liquid nitrogen tanks. We believe in the CryoScout™ and the need for it in the market so much that we initially remained focused on that. But we got curious. What would it take to deliver the same quality weight-based monitoring system for larger tanks? The answer is that we had already built it. Our existing technology transferred seamlessly. Small tanks or big tanks, there’s a better *weigh* to monitor them. We can’t wait to introduce you. #bulktanksyourewelcome #tanksyourewelcome #cryopreservation

One of our favorite parts of being a sponsor at the Southwest Embryology Summit is being in the room with the embryologists as they learn from the speakers. You hear their questions, see their reactions, and feel their energy as they learn new techniques, imagining the impact they’ll make throughout their careers. A recurring theme this year amongst the presenters was that when techniques or products are questioned, lab staff will often say “This is how we’ve always done it.” Dr. Sam Prien challenged this thought process during his talk on sperm collection and Carli Chapman echoed it when questioning oocyte denudation methods. Progress comes from questioning the status quo. If the North Star of IVF is 100% pregnancy rates, we must reexamine every step — from sperm collection to oocyte preparation to cryotank monitoring. This is why we started questioning temperature sensors as monitoring systems. Are your tanks monitored with the best solution available — or just with what’s always been used? #SWES2025 #cryopreservation #tanksyourewelcome

New Year, Same Kick Off! 🎉 We’re excited to head back to Mesa, AZ 🌵 this week for the Southwest Embryology Summit! ☀️ SWES always brings a fantastic lineup of speakers + great vendors + the best embryologists. We’ll be at booth #24 – come say hi! #SWES2025 

At Cryobio Donor Sperm Bank & Reproductive Diagnostics, Inc., safety has always been my top priority—for our staff, our patients, and the precious samples we safeguard. With nearly 5 inches of snow falling on Columbus today, I decided it was best to keep the office closed and everyone off the roads. For years, I’ve trudged into the lab through snow, sleet, and whatever else Mother Nature threw at us, all to make sure those tanks were safe. This morning though, I sat at home, logged into my Boreas Monitoring Solutions portal, saw these clear graphs and the reassuring "All Tanks Are Healthy" notification, and knew everything was under control. It’s incredible how far we’ve come. To see technology give us this kind of peace of mind—it’s nothing short of remarkable. Today, because of what we've built at Boreas, I could put my team’s safety first without a second thought.

Wishing all of our customers, colleagues, and friends a wonderful & safe holiday season! And to all the precious, irreplaceable matter spending the holidays in  #cryotanks, sleep well 😌 🧡 Team Boreas
