Cell Emergencies Happen. Here’s Your Doctor on Call.

We all know the scene: you thaw your cells, plate them out… and half don’t make it past the first 24 hours. It can feel like watching weeks of work unravel in a single day. In the lab, that’s what we call a cell emergency.

And just like in any emergency, the right first aid can make all the difference.

The Problem: Post-Thaw Stress

Cells may look small, but thawing is a huge trauma. Osmotic shock, ice crystal damage, membrane instability — it’s the cellular equivalent of a car crash. Even if some survive the first 24 hours, many face what we call Cryopreservation-Induced Delayed Onset Cell Death (CIDOCD). 

You’ll probably just call it: “Why are half of my cells dead again?!” 

In other words, cells that look alive today may not make it to tomorrow. It’s a diagnosis no researcher wants to make.

Why It Matters

If your cells were patients, you wouldn’t just wheel them out of surgery, toss them a nutrient flask, and say “good luck”. But that’s often how thawing is treated in labs: freeze with precision, thaw in a rush, and then cross your fingers. It’s no surprise recovery rates can be poor — every patient deserves proper aftercare.

The outcome?

🩺 Lower yields — fewer cells to work with, fewer experiments moving forward.

🩺 Higher variability — today’s survivors don’t behave like tomorrow’s.

🩺 Wasted time, reagents, and samples — the silent cost of poor recovery.

In other words: it’s the lab equivalent of ignoring aftercare instructions - and it leads to a lot of unnecessary stress (for you and your cells).

Introducing CytoBoost™ Revive: Your Culture’s First Responder

When your cells come out of the freezer, they’re not bouncing back instantly — they’re in recovery. This is the critical moment when they either stabilise and thrive, or spiral into CIDOCD.

That’s where CytoBoost™ Revive steps in. Think of it as the crash cart in your tissue culture room — ready to deliver life support right when your cells and organoids need it most. 

🚑 Doctor’s orders for recovery — reduces post-thaw shock and keeps more cells  alive.

⚡ Consistent care — improves recovery so your experiments don’t flatline.

🧪 Simple treatment — easy to add, no complicated protocols.

With Revive on hand, you’re not just thawing cells - you’re giving them a proper aftercare plan.

Science Meets Care

Behind the playful branding lies serious science. CytoBoost™ Revive is built on advanced cell care technology, optimised to minimise stress and help cells bounce back stronger.

Whether you’re thawing stem cells, primary lines, or immortalised cultures, Revive provides the right treatment plan to give your cells the best chance of survival — giving you the confidence that your experiments won’t flatline.

Rescue Your Cultures. Revive Your Research.

With CytoBoost™ Revive, you’re not just thawing cells  — you’re caring for them. Because your cells deserve a caring hand, not just “good luck” after thawing.
