Ice formation and its elimination in cryopreservation of bovine oocytes
2023-11-17
Abstract excerpt
Damage from ice and potential toxicity of ice-inhibiting cryoprotective agents (CPAs) are key issues in assisted reproduction using cryopreserved oocytes and embryos. We use synchrotron-based time-resolved x-ray diffraction and tools from protein cryocrystallography to characterize ice formation within bovine oocytes after cooling at rates between ∼1000 °C/min and ∼600,000°C /min and during warming at rates betwee...
