Mammalian embryos are most commonly cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen; however, liquid nitrogen is not available in special environments, such as the International Space Station (ISS), and vitrified embryos must be stored at −80°C. Recently, the high osmolarity vitrification (HOV) method was develope...
