How to Maintain -20 and -80 Freezers?
Hi all,
I recently started a lab manager position, and I haven't been in charge of maintaining freezers, inventory, and such before.
I've noticed both our -20 freezer and -80 freezer are getting a lot of icy buildup, which is making it hard to find things.
Is there something I should be doing to prevent this? Scraping it every so often? Planned defrosting?
We have long-term sample storage in the -80, as well as long-term storage of reagents in the -20.
