Summary

The current studies have shown that cryoprotectant permeation into both porcine and human ovarian tissue is incomplete using protocols reported in the literature. Given that ice formation within the tissue may cause a randomised disruption of follicle structure, higher effective cryoprotectant concentrations may be required to avoid this, which will necessitate alternative approaches, such as perfusion or selective injection, and NMR spectroscopy can be a valuable adjunct to such studies.
