Special equipment for cryopreservation of tissue in a standard freezing unit.

Summary

With forthcoming efforts in tissue engineering tissue banks will be established. For freezing tissues with different sizes standard freezing units will be taken up. Hence, the effectiveness of such a unit was investigated. The temperature homogeneity was not sufficient for developing cryoprotocols for tissues. Commonly used vials and Petri dishes are not suited for storage of tissues during the cryopreservation procedure. Special hardware was developed to overcome this deficit.
