PRESERVATION OF MOUSE EMBRYOS BY TWO-STEP FREEZING.
Author(s) : WOOD M. J., FARRANT J.
Type of article: Article
Summary
EIGHT-CELL MOUSE EMBRYOS IN 1.5 M DMSO WERE PRESERVED IN LN2 BY A TWO STEP PROCEDURE. FIFTEEN MINUTES EXPOSURE AT 253 K (-20 DEG C) PROTECTED THE EMBRYOS AGAINST DAMAGE DURING RAPID COOLING TO 77 K (-196 DEG C) AND DURING RAPID WARMING AND RAPID DILUTION. SINCE SURVIVAL WAS POOR ON SLOW WARMING IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE METHOD PERMITS THE FORMATION OF SOME INTRACELLULAR ICE.
