Cryopreservation at New England Fertility
The freezing of cells and tissue while maintaining their viability is called cryopreservation. This procedure is used at New England Fertility to store sperm, eggs, embryos, and ovarian tissue for use at a later time.
Cryobiology, the science of freezing cells and tissue, has advanced significantly over the past decade. These improvements, including a fast-freezing technique known as vitrification, now allow fertility clinics such as New England Fertility to safely freeze eggs, embryos, sperm, and ovarian tissue for prolonged periods with minimal reduction in viability.
For cryopreservation, eggs, embryos, sperm, and ovarian tissue are frozen at -196 degrees Celsius. At this temperature all cellular activities cease and egg, embryo, sperm, and ovarian tissue cells can be stored for very prolonged periods without loss of viability.
New England Fertility is one of a very few institutions worldwide where egg, embryo, ovarian tissue, and sperm freezing, including vitrification, is practiced successfully. Moreover, NEF has achieved successful full-term pregnancies using thawed frozen eggs and IVF.
