Article Synopsis
- Cell cryopreservation typically uses highly concentrated cryoprotectants (CPAs) that can be toxic and cause osmotic stress.
- A new method called forced-convective vitrification with liquid oxygen (LOX(bbp)) improves cooling rates and reduces CPA concentration needed for effective vitrification.
- Test results show that this new approach significantly increases cooling rates and lowers the necessary CPA concentration, leading to less toxicity and osmotic stress during the vitrification process.
