The paper covers the search of cryoprotective medium composition, allowing to avoid the crystal formation during rapid freezethawing in standard cryovials, as well as the effect of exposure and freezing-thawing in the media on survival of fetal fibroblast-like cells. The composition of vitrification media included dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), 1,2-propane diol (1,2-PD) and sucrose. The applicability of the media was visually assesed by presence or absence of crystal formation during freeze-thawing, and two media were selected for vitrification of cell suspensions: DEPS-1 (10% of DMSO, 20% of EG, 20% of 1,2-PD and 0,5 M of sucrose) and DEPS-2 (10% of DMSO, 15% of EG, 15% of 1,2-PD and 1 M of sucrose). Exposure to DEPS-1 and DEPS-2 led to decrease in cell survival and ability to adhere to plastic. After freeze-thawing in DEPS-2 the cell survival decreased by 30% comparing to the values before freezing, and in DEPS-1 no changes were observed and the cells proliferate in culture. Thus the possibility of fetal fibroblast-like cell suspension to be vitrified in multicomponent cryoprotective media during rapid freezing in standard plastic cryovials was shown.
