摘要：

The benefits of oocyte and embryo cryopreservation originate from its ability to arrest all biological processes and place cells into a state of suspended animation. Such interruption of embryogenesis for any period of time provides a powerful method of controlling animal reproduction. The universal appeal of this approach is illustrated by recent surveys of bovine embryo transfer practitioners suggesting that over one-third of embryos collected in the USA and Europe were cryopreserved. This is an area of rapid scientific and technological advancement based on rapidly evolving concepts in the fields of cryobiology, embryology and animal reproduction.
