Vitrification is a valuable technology that enables semipermanent preservation and long‐
distance or international transportation of genetically modified and native animals. In …

Cryopreservation of mammalian zygotes can be advantageous since it enables their flexile
use in time and space for alternative purposes such as genome editing. Here we report a …

The goal of cryopreservation is to retain the original stage of gametes and embryos after
they have endured cooling and warming. Slow freezing is a standard method for in vivo …

The impact of cryopreservation in assisted reproduction is increasingly appreciated. Cells,
oocytes, and embryos preserved under ultralow temperature can endure storage for …

Embryo cryopreservation is an indispensable technique in reproductive programs and in
animal facilities where genetically modified mice are used extensively. Here we report the …

Cryopreservation of mouse embryos is a technological basis that supports biomedical
sciences, because many strains of mice have been produced by genetic modifications and …

Cryopreservation of embryos is important for long-distance embryo transfer and
conservation of genetic resources. Porcine research is important for animal husbandry and …

In wild animals' conservation programs, gamete banking is crucial to safeguard genetic
resources of valuable individuals and rare species and to promote biodiversity preservation …

The combined use of reproductive technologies, such as transvaginal ovum-pick up and in
vitro embryo production followed by direct transfer of cryopreserved embryos, has great …

Among various high-rate cooling approaches used for vitrification of mammalian oocytes
and embryos (discussed in detail in Chapter 2) two techniques have obtained relatively wide …
