What are the preparations for the freeze dryer before work？
It is well known that when using the freeze dryer for the first time, we must thoroughly clean all parts of the dryer. Everyone knows that stainless steel parts are cleaned with ethanol, and plexiglass is washed with normal saline. Ampoules are cleaned with an ultrasonic cleaner, but what preparations do we need to make before actually operating the freeze dryer?

What should I pay attention to when purchasing a freeze dryer?
The main uses of modern freeze-drying technology are: freeze-drying storage of in vitro biological tissues; freeze-drying preservation of live bacteria; lyophilization of Chinese herbal medicines, western medicines, biological drugs and blood products; freezing of convenience foods, health foods, functional foods Dry storage and transportation; lyophilization preparation of nano ceramic materials and various metal micropowder materials. Therefore, freeze-drying technology has been widely used in the fields of chemicals, food, materials, medicine, and biological products. Vacuum freeze dryer (referred to as freeze dryer) is a device for realizing freeze-drying technology. It is a complex structure machine involving refrigeration, vacuum, thermal, mechanical, fluid, electrical control and pressure vessels.

Use Of Food Freeze Dryer
Food Freeze Dryer is currently a more advanced method of material dehydration, the technology is water-containing substances frozen at low temperatures, and then make the water in the vacuum state directly sublimation, and condensation method to capture the sublimation of water vapour, to achieve the purpose of material dehydration and drying. After the food freeze dryer of the material, its physical, chemical and biological state is basically unchanged, the material in the volatile components and heat denaturation of the loss of nutrients is very small, after freeze drying of the material is porous, its volume is basically the same as before drying. Therefore, after adding water, due to the large contact area, it can be recovered very quickly and has a longer preservation period in the sealed container.
Food IndustryPreservation of Food - Freeze dryers are used to preserve various food products, such as fruits, vegetables, and meals, by removing water while maintaining their nutritional value, taste, and texture. Instant Coffee and Tea - Freeze drying is employed to produce instant coffee and tea, allowing for easy preparation and longer shelf life.
Pharmaceutical IndustryDrug Formulation - Freeze dryers are utilized for the development and production of stable pharmaceutical formulations, including injectables, oral tablets, and vaccines. Biologics and Biopharmaceuticals - They aid in the freeze-drying of proteins, enzymes, antibodies, and other biologics to enhance their stability, prolong shelf life, and maintain their therapeutic properties.
Biotechnology and ResearchPreservation of Biological Samples - Freeze dryers are used for the long-term preservation of biological samples, such as cells, tissues, and microorganisms, while maintaining their viability and functionality. Enzyme Stabilization - They aid in the stabilization of enzymes for various biotechnological applications, such as enzymatic assays, biocatalysis, and diagnostic kits.
Floral and Herbal IndustryFlower Preservation - Freeze dryers are employed to preserve flowers, maintaining their shape, color, and fragrance for decorative purposes or as keepsakes. Herbal Extracts - They are used to freeze-dry herbal extracts, preserving their active compounds for use in herbal remedies, cosmetics, and aromatherapy products.
