Topics covered include the molecular properties of cells and tissues influencing preservation outcome, viability and functional assays used to assess preservation efficacy, organ preservation for transplantation, cryopreservation of nonmammalian metazoan metazoan member of the zoological division of Metazoa. systems, use of intracellular protectants in cell biopreservation, thermal instruments and devices in cryobiological research and applications, solid mechanics aspects of cryobiology Cryobiology The use of low-temperature environments in the study of living plants and animals. The principal effects of cold on living tissue are destruction of life and preservation of life at a reduced level of activity. , and stabilization of mammalian cells in the dry state.
