Description

The biological field of cryopreservation examines the theories and procedures for maintaining live things at extremely low temperatures of -196°C. The metabolic processes of the cells are halted but they are still alive at this temperature. After a good thaw, their usual functioning can be restored. Genes can be preserved through cryopreservation for a long time. The preservation of biodiversity also includes the cryopreservation of sperm. By creating a gene bank, it permits maintaining a larger and more productive breeding population and aids in the conservation of endangered species by preserving genetic variety.
