Comparison of oocyte vitrification using a semi-automated or a manual closed system in human siblings: survival and transcriptomic analyses

Journal of Ovarian Research, 2022
Background Indications of oocyte vitrification increased substantially over the last decades for clinical and ethical reasons. A semi-automated vitrification system was recently developed making each act of vitrification reproducible.

Efficient vitrification of mouse embryos using the Kitasato Vitrification System as a novel vitrification device [PDF]

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2017
Currently, the cryopreservation of embryos and oocytes is essential for assisted reproductive technology (ART) laboratories worldwide. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the Kitasato Vitrification System (KVS) as a vitrification device for the cryopreservation of mouse embryos to determine whether this novel device can be adapted to the field

Unraveling Subcellular and Ultrastructural Changes During Vitrification of Human Spermatozoa: Effect of a Mitochondria-Targeted Antioxidant and a Permeable Cryoprotectant

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Mitochondria-targeted antioxidants have great potential to counterbalance the generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) because they cross the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Still, their use was not reported in vitrified human spermatozoa.

Vitrification Solutions for Plant Cryopreservation: Modification and Properties

Plants, 2021
Many plants cannot vitrify themselves because they lack glassy state-inducing substances and/or have high water content. Therefore, cryoprotectants are used to induce vitrification.

Successful production of offspring derived from mouse zygotes vitrified with carboxylated ε-poly-L-lysine and polyvinyl alcohol without serum

The Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2022
The vitrification of zygotes is important for their use as donors for generating genome-edited mice. We previously reported the successful vitrification of mouse zygotes using carboxylated ε-poly-L-lysine (COOH-PLL).

Cryopreservation of Brazilian green dwarf coconut plumules by droplet-vitrification

, 2020
: This study evaluated the effect of vitrification solutions and exposure time on the cryopreservation of Brazilian green dwarf coconut plumules (BGD) using the droplet vitrification technique. Explants were excised from BGD mature fruits from the Active

Vitrification of Pronuclear Zygotes Perturbs Porcine Zygotic Genome Activation

Animals, 2022
Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) plays an essential role in early embryonic development. Vitrification is a common assisted reproductive technology that frequently reduces the developmental competence of embryos.

In vitro application of Ceratonia siliqua improved sperm parameters and chromatin quality after vitrifacation in normozoospermic aged men

Middle East Fertility Society Journal, 2019
Background Vitrification is the main technique in the assisted reproductive technique (ART) labs. Sperm vitrification exposes sperm to damage. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro effect of Ceratonia siliqua (C.

Interfacial engineering of polymer-MOF composite by in situ vitrification

, 2020
Non-stoichoimetric crystalline ZIF-62 was used as the filler for a 6FDA-DAM polyimide-based composite membrane. In situ melting and vitrification of ZIF-62 was then performed, to yield the ZIF-62 glass phase (agZIF-62), within the polymer matrix.
