Asymptote has used its expertise in cryobiology to develop a state-of-the-art controlled rate freezer for the cryopreservation of embryos, spermatozoa and stem cells. See our EF600 pages for more details.
The cryopreservation protocols routinely used in IVF and biotechnology are simply and easily achieved in our controlled rate freezers. However, an understanding of the basic principles of cryobiology is desirable to ensure that the methodology is correctly applied and cell damage is minimised during the processes of freezing and thawing.
Asymptote's Guide to Cryopreservation describes the physical processes underlying cryopreservation.
