[edit]If the ULT freezer runs at -80 to -85°C, what is the relevance of liquid nitrogen at -196°C? Biscuittin (talk) 23:15, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
- I would call a freezer a machine, rather than an instrument. Instruments are usually for detection or measurement. Biscuittin (talk) 23:19, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

[edit]@Zefr: so we're really going to have a section about every single type of shit we keep in -80s then ? Nick (talk) 21:48, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- No, in the case of a pandemic where ULT freezers are essential to vaccine distribution, we write encyclopedic content with reputable sources, readily meeting WP:WEIGHT. Zefr (talk) 21:52, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- The storage requirements for RNA vaccines are covered extensively in the correct place - namely the COVID-19 vaccine article, where, I note with much dismay, there's a link to the section you've crufted here which copies the content from the COVID-19 vaccine article (and adds absolutely nothing) to the readers understanding of ULT storage. It's needless duplication. Nick (talk) 22:00, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- I agree with Nick. Many biological reagents require ultra low storage temperatures; singling out a potential vaccine looks really out of place here. --HyperGaruda (talk) 22:06, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- It's consistent with WP:WEIGHT to "fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint". Drbogdan brought attention to codiscuss COVID-19 mRNA vaccines with ULT. Cold chain and ULT are among the most-discussed topics this month concerning the upcoming world response to the pandemic, associating with WP:NOW. Zefr (talk) 22:13, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- WP:RECENTISM... --HyperGaruda (talk) 22:22, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, I agree that this is WP:UNDUE in an article that should give information on ULT freezers in general. We don't need a list of all things that are stored at –80. Natureium (talk) 22:47, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- Understood. Zefr (talk) 23:16, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
