Aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation

°C, with the cell membranes, synapses, and intracellular structures intact in electron micrographs.^[1] The technique has finally won the Small Animal Brain Preservation Prize of the Brain Preservation Foundation.^[2][3] The cryopreserved brain was rewarmed and no serious degradation was found to have occurred; the brain structure under electron microscopic evaluation after rewarming remained well-preserved.^[4][5] Although this technique has not yet lead to a successful revival of a cryopreserved brain, some researchers see this technique as providing promising directions for future research.^[6]
