Most biological activity, including those biochemical reactions that lead to cell death, are effectively stopped when brought to temperatures below the glass transition point of water solutions (around -136°C). Cryoport provides a shipping container that maintains a temperature of -150°C. It is important to note that cellular material can be damaged during the freezing to low temperatures process, or warming to room temperature process, if proper cryoprotectants are not used.
