Principles of Cryopreservation and Optimization of Vitrification
This talk discusses about the principles of using cryoprotectants to achieve cryopreservation including slow freezing and vitrification. Based on the principles, several approaches used to improve vitrification are reviewed. The future directions of the cryopreservation for reproductive cells are also proposed in the conclusion.
