Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know.
ARDI
What is ARDI?
ARDI (phonetically derived from “R-D,” Reliquefier Dewar) is an intelligent cryogenic management system developed for fertility and reproductive medicine laboratories. It ensures stable and secure cryostorage conditions by automating liquid nitrogen management and providing complete digital traceability for oocytes and embryos.
What problem does ARDI solve?
Traditional cryostorage management relies heavily on manual operations, which are time-consuming and prone to human error or unnoticed nitrogen losses.
ARDI eliminates these risks by automating both sample handling and reliquefaction.
Its integrated robotic system performs storage and retrieval operations without manual intervention, reducing exposure to ambient conditions and ensuring consistent, error-free handling that safeguards biological integrity and regulatory compliance.
ARDI also eliminates the need for external LN₂ refills by continuously reliquefying gaseous nitrogen within its closed system.
How does ARDI maintain cryogenic safety?
ARDI continuously monitors LN₂ level and internal pressure. When the level approaches predefined thresholds, its integrated LCS (Level Control System) regulates the cryocooler and valves to reliquefy gaseous nitrogen within the closed Dewar.
This maintains temperature and pressure within safe cryogenic ranges, ensuring long-term stability without manual intervention.
The LCS works in conjunction with redundant sensors and automatic safety valves that prevent overpressure or excessive boil-off.
How does the robotic arm assist sample management?
The Place and Retrieval System (PRS) autonomously handles the positioning, storage, and retrieval of ARDI containers and vitrification devices inside the Dewar.
It combines motion control with onboard sensors to ensure precise operation even under cryogenic conditions.
The PRS minimizes operator exposure to cold zones, prevents misalignment or cross-handling errors, and guarantees consistent placement accuracy—critical for maintaining chain of custody and biological integrity.
It is compatible with all vitrification devices (straws and carriers) currently used in fertility laboratories, ensuring seamless integration with existing workflows.
Can ARDI alert the user of abnormal conditions?
Yes. ARDI provides both visual and remote alerts (via LEDs, on-screen messages, and email or mobile notifications) whenever it detects abnormal conditions.
Each event is logged with an exact timestamp and can be reviewed locally or remotely through the connected Crinsutrack platform.
What makes ARDI intelligent?
ARDI integrates local control logic and predictive algorithms that analyze sensor data trends to anticipate anomalies—such as leak formation, insulation degradation, or nitrogen depletion—before they occur.
Combined with remote analytics through Crinsutrack, it transforms raw telemetry into actionable insights for preventive maintenance and operational optimization.
Can ARDI operate without constant human supervision?
Yes. Once configured, ARDI autonomously maintains cryogenic stability and traceability.
