A Review of Research on Efficient Cell Preservation Methods

Xiatong Zheng, Yan Xu, Shuhe Yu, Guoliang Zhang, Yijin Wang

Abstract


Cell preservation technology drives advancements in life sciences by enabling long-term cell storage while maintaining functionality. Key mechanisms include cryoprotective agents (CPAs) and vitrification, which minimize ice crystal formation. Applications span
medical therapies (e.g., CAR-T, stem cell treatments), scientific research, biomanufacturing, and agriculture. Emerging trends focus on
automated storage, novel vitrification solutions, and gene-customized preservation. Future progress will enhance precision medicine and
biotechnological efficiency.

Keywords
