Biorepository services — Detroit, MI
From refrigerated reagents to cryopreserved cells, U.S. BioStorage takes custody of biospecimen collections across every storage condition — 4°C, -20°C, -80°C and liquid nitrogen — keeping them monitored, inventoried and recoverable for as long as you need them.
Storage conditions
Most labs store samples across several conditions. We consolidate them under a single monitored facility, a single inventory system and a single chain of custody.
Controlled 2–8°C storage for materials that must stay cold but never freeze.
Standard frozen storage for stable biological materials and working stocks.
Long-term ultra-low storage for sensitive and irreplaceable specimens.
Vapor-phase cryogenic storage for living material that must be preserved indefinitely.
The problem
A single freezer or dewar failure overnight can destroy years of irreplaceable samples — with no backup power and no one watching.
When a grant ends or a PI leaves, collections are often left behind with no plan for who manages them next.
Spreadsheets and mislabeled boxes spread across fridges, freezers and tanks make it hard to know what you actually have.
Without documented chain of custody, samples lose credibility with collaborators, sponsors and auditors.
Services
4°C, -20°C, -80°C and liquid nitrogen capacity with 24/7 remote temperature monitoring, backup power and documented excursion response — so your samples are never unwatched.
Barcode-based tracking and audit-ready records from the moment a sample arrives, so you always know what you have, where it is and who has touched it.
For labs facing a grant ending, a PI relocating or a collection that's outgrown its setup — a full inventory audit and managed move into monitored storage.
Process
An intake call to review your current inventory, storage conditions, consent terms and needs before anything moves.
A documented, temperature-appropriate, chain-of-custody move into monitored storage, with a full inventory audit along the way.
Continuous monitoring, regular reporting and retrieval on request — for as long as the collection is in our care.
For investors
Every research lab, hospital and biotech company generates samples that must be kept safe for years. U.S. BioStorage turns that unavoidable need into a dependable, recurring service.
Storage is billed on an ongoing basis for the life of a collection, creating predictable, long-duration customer relationships with low churn.
Offering 4°C, -20°C, -80°C and liquid nitrogen under one roof lets us capture a client's entire collection rather than a single freezer.
Detroit and Southeast Michigan host a dense concentration of universities, health systems and life-science companies with limited access to local, dedicated biorepository services.
Documented chain of custody, monitoring history and audit-ready records build switching costs — once a collection is in our care, it tends to stay.
