SAMPLE SUPPORT FOR THE CRYOCONSERVATION OF BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES

摘要

The invention relates to sample supports and methods for cryonconservation, especially the cryoconservation of biological materials, comprising at least one sample reservoir (2) used to receive a biological sample. A support body (3) is disposed in the sample reservoir (2), made of a material having a volume structure, consisting of a plurality of open, inner cavities which can be filled with the sample. The invention also relates to the use of motor vehicle catalyst-structures or biomorphic ceramics for producing support bodies used to receive samples for cryoconservation.
