Journal ArticleDOI
Current progress in oocyte and embryo cryopreservation by slow freezing and vitrification
Joseph Saragusty,Amir Arav +1 more
TL;DR: The major strides and obstacles in human and other vertebrate oocyte and embryo cryopreservation will be reviewed here.
Journal ArticleDOI
Directional freezing: a solution to the methodological challenges to preserve large organs.
Amir Arav,Yehudit Natan +1 more
TL;DR: The limiting factors for the successful freezing of whole organs, such as homogeneous cooling rate, supercooling, latent heat, and recrystallization are discussed, and it is shown how the use of directional freezing technology provides solutions to these problems.
Patent
Methods and device for freezing and thawing biological samples
TL;DR: In this article, a method for changing the temperature of a sample from an initial temperature via an intermediate temperature to a final temperature, one of the initial and final temperatures being above the freezing point of said sample and the other being below the freezing points, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Techniques of Cryopreservation for Ovarian Tissue and Whole Ovary.
Amir Arav,Pasquale Patrizio +1 more
TL;DR: 3 methodologies for cryopreservation of ovarian tissue are discussed: (a) slow freezing, (b) directional freezing, and (c) vitrification.
Patent
Method for freezing viable cells
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and a device for improved freezing of biological containing living cells is disclosed, where directional cooling coupled with agitation, preferably rotation, of the vessel containing the biological sample allows for the freezing of large volume samples at much grater rates than before.
