Services

CryoManagement

The SOL Group, the European leader on the medicinal gas market, dedicates its ISO 9001:2015 certified CryoManagement service to the design, turnkey construction and management of cryobiology rooms, in compliance with international accreditation standards.

Disaster Recovery Plan

Since 2013 we have had the mandatory approval issued by the Ministry of Health for the transfer of complete Cryobiology Rooms in emergency conditions, if any unexpected catastrophic events occur.

Third Party Storage

We provide a third party biological sample preservation service in the three Cryolab Cryobiology Rooms, each having its own specific approval issued by the Ministry of Health.

Transport of biological samples and medicinal products

We are authorized by the Italian Ministry of Health to carry out the transport of biological samples for clinical use and research and we possess UNI ISO 21973 certification for the transport of cells for therapeutic use. We are partners of the IBMDR (Italian Bone Marrow Donor Registry) network, for international transport of stem cells and blood components from adult donators and hematopoietic stem cells from cord blood for transplantation purposes.

The transport of biological samples is fundamentally important to ensure the safety of the operators and the correct preservation and treatment of the sample to be transplanted or used for research purposes.
The transport conditions must ensure the maintenance of the stability of the sample and its diagnostic value, as these characteristics are necessary to ensure the reliability of the results of the tests to which the sample is to be subjected.    
The time, temperature and methods of remote transport of biological samples and medicinal products are potential sources of corruption of the biological matrix, which has extremely serious consequences.
It is therefore fundamentally important that the transport of biological samples and medicinal products be commissioned to operators with certified reliability.

Services for Pharma/Biotech

The Cryolab plant in Rome has laboratories for the performance of extensive (Grade B) and minimal (Grade D) cell manipulation protocols.

Environmental Monitoring and Sanitisation Services

We provide environmental, microbiological and particle monitoring services, with a view to validating all the systems, health and environmental parameters of plants, classified rooms, chemical and biological laboratory hoods.

SecurFill

SecurFill is a system manufactured entirely in Italy and patented by the SOL Group. It automatically fills liquid nitrogen containers under conditions of absolute safety.
