BioLife Solutions has executed an OEM agreement to supply its CryoStor cell freeze media and HypoThermosol cell storage and shipping media under private label to MilliporeSigma, the life science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.
"We are very pleased to formalize our long-term relationship with MilliporeSigma. Since 2009, the MilliporeSigma marketing and sales organizations have demonstrated a strong ability to drive adoption of our proprietary biopreservation media products in the biotech research market. In 2017 alone, MilliporeSigma distributed our products to over 600 different customers,” Mike Rice, BioLife President & CEO, said. “We look forward to continuing to support MilliporeSigma in our shared mission to drive a paradigm shift away from using home-brew biopreservation media to our engineered, pre-formulated GMP manufactured products."
