Safe cryopreservation of tissues and cells: general principles and current practice.
Author(s) : PEGG D. E.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Thorough donor and good laboratory practice are fundamental to safe cryopreservation. However, microbiological contamination of low temperature refrigerators has to be assumed: they provide a dirty environment. Secure enclosure is therefore essential and some form of double enclosure is mandatory. With proper technique, gas phase storage provides effective preservation and avoids the risk of explosion.
