Cryopreservation is the reservation of germplasm at very low temperature of around
(a) − 121 ∘ C
(b) − 196 ∘ C
(c) 0 ∘ C
(d) − 101 ∘ C

A

`-121^(@)C`

B

`-196^(@)C`

C

`0^(@)C`

D

`-101^(@)C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Cryopreservation is preservation at `-196^(@)C` (liquid nitrogen). It can maintain tissue culture, embryos, animal cells`//` tissues, spermatozoa indefinitely. The cryopreserved material is revived through special technique when required.
