Abstract

[Before the umbilical blood is frozen, it will first be introduced to a solution to help prevent it from being damaged while frozen. This solution is referred to as the cryopreservation solvent or cryoprotectant [1]. Once the blood has received this, it will begin to slowly freeze. Freezing it gradually is used as another preventative measure in guarding the cells against damage. Once the blood is frozen to a temperature of −96°C, it is transferred to a permanent storage freezer where it will remain frozen through the use of either liquid or vapor nitrogen.]
