  • Reproductive cells and embryos: Eggs, sperm, and embryos used in fertility treatments like IVF can be cryopreserved for future use.
  • Stem cells: These have the potential to develop into many different cell types, making them valuable for research and regenerative medicine.
  • Tissues and organs: Skin grafts, corneas, and even heart valves can be cryopreserved for transplantation.
  • Biological samples: Blood, bacteria, and other biological materials can be cryopreserved for research purposes.
  • Preserves fertility: Allows individuals to delay parenthood or preserve fertility options in case of medical treatments that might affect it.
  • Supports medical research: Enables research on diseases and development of new treatments using preserved cells and tissues.
