If a CAS freezer don't supercool or vitrifies, but keeps cells undamaged by 
whatever way,  then we will find that out later, the important thing is that it 
(probably) works.

 

Maybe somebody must buy a small CAS freezer and experiment with it.


Freeze a Woodfrog or something to liquid Nitrogen  temperatures, and try to 
bring it back to live after that.

  

There seems to be a desktop CAS freezer available.

Maybe that one is affordable for CI or ALCOR or others.

Here is a PDF from the Grimsby institute where its mentioned.
