Abstract
A sample cooling and storage mechanism includes a refrigeration device and a gradient cooling device. The refrigeration device is configured to perform temperature-controlled refrigeration on storage vials. The gradient cooling device is configured to perform programmed gradient cooling on the storage vials. The refrigeration device includes at least one refrigeration zone. A nitrogen spraying component, a heating component and a storage vial rack are provided in the refrigeration zone. The nitrogen spraying component is configured to spray nitrogen in the refrigeration zone. The heating component heats the interior of the refrigeration zone. The sample cooling and storage mechanism achieves a gradient cooling function for biological samples through the gradient cooling device, thereby preventing damage to the biological samples caused by rapid cooling. In addition, the sample cooling and storage mechanism achieves a temperature-controlled refrigeration function for the biological samples through the refrigeration device.
