First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for thawing a frozen biological material, comprising:
- reading information contained on a code or tag associated with the frozen biological material;
setting a target temperature for the frozen biological material;
applying heat to the frozen biological material via a heating device; and
controllably moving the biological material for a time period to allow generally uniform heat dispersion, wherein the time period is determined based on at least one of the target temperature and a content volume of the biological material.

Abstract
This disclosure is a system for heating a sample, e.g. a biological material, in a vessel. The system can include a heating device configured to transmit energy to the vessel and a base moveably coupled to the heating device. The system can also include a processor configured to receive an input associated with a target temperature, and transmit a signal to controllably move the heating device relative to the base for a time period, wherein the time period is determined based on the target temperature and content volume.
