Dr Vuong says: «Our research results are specific to a common
freezing method known as Cryotech vitrification, so it may not apply to all
embryo freezing techniques currently being used.
Importantly, this
method could allow the
embryos of rare breeds to be «
frozen», creating a safety net of «reserve animals» should anything threaten the existing stock.
The paper reports new details about the procedure, such as the
method used to transfer the mitochondria:
freezing and heating the
embryo before using an electrical pulse to fuse the mother's nucleus into the donor egg.
At the workshop an extraordinary group of experts in the cryopreservation field brainstormed and discussed in depth the latest technological advances in cryopreservation, including sperm and
embryo cryopreservation, updated in vitro fertilization (IVF)
methods and related techniques as ovary cryopreservation, laser - assisted and piezo - driven intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), transportation of
frozen material and other technical and logistic challenges relevant to the operation of current mouse
embryo / sperm archives.
