    Etten-Leur, The Netherlands: – The Exchange Program introduced by biomedical preservation specialist PHC Europe B.V. (PHCEU) has located the longest-serving freezer in Estonia at the Tallinn University of Technology.

    PHCEU presented an award to Professor Tõnis Timmusk and his laboratory team at TalTech’s Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology after they came forward with an MDF-330 biomedical freezer, still delivering faithful service after 35 years.

    Long survivors

    Professor Tõnis and his team received a brand new PHCbi MDF-MU300H free of charge for winning the Exchange Program challenge for the oldest working unit.

    The campaign, introduced as part of the rebranding of the previous Panasonic biomedical brand to PHCbi, has so far identified 44 veteran units for exchange, more than a third of them located by the Frilabo team in Portugal.

    PHCbi heritage

    “PHCbi is a new name with a well-established history in which SANYO and Panasonic clearly played an important role in developing high-quality and reliable products for the life science market,” commented Ton Schipperheijn, PHCEU Corporate Affairs Manager.

    “To prove this, we went looking for the oldest working device from our past through the Exchange Campaign. We are delighted to have found that unit in the Tallinn,’ University of Technology (TalTech), Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology,” said Mr. Schipperheijn.
