freezing HEK293 cells - (Dec/19/2006 )

I've to freeze my HEK293cells for about 15-20 days as im going for a vaccation.Is it okay to keep the cells in cryobox in -80?Or should it be liquid nitrogen alwayz,even for few days??

I do like scolix as well

I think If you have stocks made and stored at -196 degree C, why not thaw that after coming back from holidays?

But storing cells at -80 degree C is okay as you are going to store them only for 20-25 days.
