Summary

LOW TEMPERATURE TOLERANCE OF GAMETOPHYTES OF ALGA UNDARIA PINNATIFIDA IS STUDIED UNDER DIFFERENT CRYOPRESERVATION METHODS. STORAGE AT 193 K (-80 DEG C) IN A SOLUTION CONTAINING 28% GLYCEROL, AND AT 77 K (-196 DEG C) IN A SEA WATER SOLUTION CONTAINING 5 OR 10% GLYCEROL, GIVES A SURVIVAL TIME OF 9 AND 4 DAYS. VIABILITY IS NOT AFFECTED BY A COOLING RATE OF 5 K/MIN AND BY 15 MINUTES STORAGE AT 258 K (-15 DEG C) WITHOUT A CRYOPROTECTIVE AGENT, BUT IS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED BY 15 MINUTES STORAGE AT 243 K (-30 DEG C) OR AT 77 K, EVEN WITH DMSO.
