Popis: Cryopreservation is a method which enables to store the cells for a long time period and allows to obtain the appropriate amount of cells necessary for transplantation. Unfortunately, the cells isolated from organs like e.g. hepatocytes are susceptible to freezing damage. Encapsulation may be considered as a method allowing to protect cells during adverse freezing conditions.
