Freezer Box Inventory and Sample Tracker

Click any tube to type a label. Click a column header (1, 2…) or row header (A, B…) to label a whole line at once. Choose Paint, Empty, or Clear to change what clicking does, then click or drag across tubes.

Freezer Box guide & FAQ

Build a searchable freezer box inventory

This freezer box tracker maps samples to exact row-and-column positions in 9×9 cryoboxes, 10×10 cryoboxes, 8×12 racks, or custom grids. Label tubes individually, fill batches from a pasted list, mark empty positions, and search across every saved box to find a sample without opening the freezer.

Each box can be printed as a visual map or exported to CSV for analysis, backup, or transfer. JSON import and export preserve the complete box layout. Data is saved automatically in the browser; signing in adds cloud backup and shared-lab workspaces for teams that need access from multiple devices.

A practical cryobox naming system

Use a unique box name and keep sample labels short but unambiguous. Record freezer, shelf, rack, and box identifiers consistently—for example, FZ2 / Shelf 3 / Rack B / Box 07 / C4. Export a combined CSV periodically so there is an independent inventory record outside the browser.

Freezer inventory FAQ

Can I search for a sample across multiple freezer boxes?

Yes. The inventory search checks labels in all saved boxes and opens the matching box and position when you select a result.

Which cryobox sizes are supported?

Built-in presets cover 9×9 and 10×10 cryoboxes plus 8×12 racks. Custom layouts can use up to 16 rows and 24 columns.

Where is the freezer inventory stored?

Unsigned use is saved locally in the current browser. A signed-in account can back up data to the cloud and optionally share a workspace with a lab. CSV and JSON exports provide portable backups.
