  All you need to know about Cryogenic Preservation Overview In science, two procedures, namely Vitrification and Slow cooling, are practiced to preserve the biological materials such as cells, bone marrow, DNA, etc. at the low temperature, compared to their normal temperatures. Cryobiology: The study of life below very low temperature is known as cryobiology. The advantages of cryobiology are: ·          Helps preserve the biological materials ·          By this, the biological materials such as cells, gametes, embryos, bone marrow, DNA, etc. can be preserved for a longer time. ·          It helps to examine the adapting nature of animals under low temperatures. Cryopreservation: It is the process that comes under the Cryobiology in which the cell is kept under the extremely low temperature, which causes the cell to prevent its biological, chemical reactions. Eventually, the cell leads to death. At times, the cell that is kept under cryopreservation may get damaged w
