As you will see in all of our [Product Catalog](https://www.mecour.com/thermal-products/) sections (with exception to Thermal Inserts), we wanted to illustrate how unfortunately dry ice or regular ice does not fully envelop and transfer temperature to the samples contained in various consumables. As noted throughout MeCour's history of 16+ years, we have focused our efforts on providing total uniform, stable temperature to whatever consumable we've designed a thermal block for. As illustrated in the dry ice shots, there is a household thermostat and RS232 cable. We trust that you know there is no way to control the temperature of dry ice nor interface with the management of temperature dry ice or regular ice provide. The other point we wanted to focus on is how much of your sample or reagent is not technically in contact with dry or regular ice; thus, no temperature transfer or control exist. Each MeCour product category clearly details the effort we put into making sure the maximum direct thermal transfer is achieved and maintained to provide you maximum control and reproduceable end results. ![dry ice versus temperature control ](https://www.mecour.com/hs-fs/file-920803873-jpg/images/img_0767-resized-600.jpg?width=384&height=256&name=img_0767-resized-600.jpg) As always, MeCour will design the thermal block per your exact specifications. These can and often do include multiple sized tubes or reagent bottles combined with DWP or standard microplates. **Bottom line:** whatever your application requires to operate more efficiently we will design the corresponding thermal system to meet those demands.                 Tags: [thermal block](https://www.mecour.com/blog/topic/thermal-block), [temperature control systems](https://www.mecour.com/blog/topic/temperature-control-systems), [no dry ice for temperature control](https://www.mecour.com/blog/topic/no-dry-ice-for-temperature-control) ### Subscribe to our Blog [![Product Literature](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/49801/0188f9b4-85d4-4a0f-8703-672cd47aef27.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/49801/0188f9b4-85d4-4a0f-8703-672cd47aef27) [![Resources & FAQs](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/49801/37ac10af-18a0-4c27-b970-a2a68d7d10c4.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/49801/37ac10af-18a0-4c27-b970-a2a68d7d10c4) [![Watch Videos](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/49801/f1b446a3-bee5-4962-92a5-67ece4c2ef17.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/49801/f1b446a3-bee5-4962-92a5-67ece4c2ef17) ### Posts by Category - [Accolades (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/accolades) - [bead-based assay (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/bead-based-assay) - [biomolecular sciences (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/biomolecular-sciences) - [Biosciences (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/biosciences) - [circulator system (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/circulator-system) - [cooling block (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/cooling-block) - [Custom Projects (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/custom-projects) - [heating block (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/heating-block) - [MeCour (2)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mecour) - [MeCour CEO (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mecour-ceo) - [MeCour Newsletter (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mecour-newsletter) - [MeCour Videos (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mecour-videos) - [mecour website (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mecour-website) - [Metabolic Stability (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/metabolic-stability) - [millipore (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/millipore) - [MéCour News (2)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/mécour-news) - [Temperature Control (3)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/temperature-control) - [thermal block (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/thermal-block) - [throughput (1)](https://www.mecour.com/news/topic/throughput) [Show More >](https://www.mecour.com/blog/bid/110987/Is-Your-Current-Temperature-Control-System-Working-For-You#) ### Most Popular Posts ## [Product Catalog](https://www.mecour.com/thermal-products) [Microplates](https://www.mecour.com/microplates) [Thermal Inserts ](https://www.mecour.com/thermal-inserts) [Test Tube Racks](https://www.mecour.com/tube-units) [Design Specific ](https://www.mecour.com/design-specific) [Reagent & Media Bottles ](https://www.mecour.com/reagent-media-bottles) [Mass Spec LC/GC ](https://www.mecour.com/mass-spec-lc-gc) [Ultra Low Temp Solutions](https://www.mecour.com/ultra-low-temp-solutions) ## [Applications](https://www.mecour.com/thermal-block-applications) [Drug Screening](https://www.mecour.com/applications/tube-racks-for-drug-screening) [Biological Assays](https://www.mecour.com/applications/biological-assays) [Enzymatic Applications](https://www.mecour.com/applications/enzymatic-applications) [Genomics Applications](https://www.mecour.com/applications/genomics-applications) [Cell Culture](https://www.mecour.com/applications/cell-culture) [Tube-Based Assays](https://www.mecour.com/applications/tube-based-assays) [Chromatography](https://www.mecour.com/applications/chromatography) [Vessel Applications](https://www.mecour.com/applications/vessel-applications) [Automation](https://www.mecour.com/applications/automation) [Microbiological](https://www.mecour.com/applications/microbiological) [Thermal Optimization](https://www.mecour.com/applications/instrument-thermal-optimization) ## [Automation](https://www.mecour.com/automation) [Automation and SBS Compliant](https://www.mecour.com/automation/automation-and-sbs-compl/adme---tox---kinase-screens) [Automation & Mass Spec LG/GC](https://www.mecour.com/automation/automation-mass-spec-lg-gc/hydrogen-deuterium-exchange) [Ultra Low Temp Solutions](https://www.mecour.com/automation/ultra-low-temp-solutions/hydrogen-deuterium-exchange) ## [Contact Us](https://www.mecour.com/contact-us) [Request a Quote](https://www.mecour.com/quote) 10 Merrimack River Road Groveland, MA 01834 Tel: 978-372-6085 [Privacy Policy](https://www.mecour.com/mécour-privacy-policy)
