Cryopreservation has become a central, routine procedure in areas such as human reproductive medicine, animal breeding, banking of cells from many genera (both prokaryotes and eukaryotes) to establish Reference Collections, and cryo-banking of blood and small tissues. During this time, a considerable understanding has been accrued of the basic mechanisms which control cell death or survival, and the aims of the current review are to set out this information. There also remain many challenges ahead, to expand the science of cryobiology in biotechnology and tissue engineering, and these are discussed.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Problems of Cryobiology and Cryomedicine}, author={Fuller, B. and Green, C. and Grischenko, V.
