The CryoLogic Vitrification Method 

 CVM

Practitioners Kit

The CryoLogic Vitrification Method is a simple and reliable process used to vitrify and thaw specimens. The CVM™ kit overcomes many of the problems usually encountered with vitrification. It has been specially designed to provide ultra-rapid cooling of specimens without their immersion in, or direct contact with, liquid nitrogen. Specimens are collected into small droplets and each droplet is transferred onto a hook at the end of a custom designed fibre called a Fibreplug™. The droplets are vitrified by touching the hook of the Fibreplug™ to the surface of a chilled block. The CryoLogic Vitrification Method not only provides ultra-rapid cooling of specimens, but just as importantly, ultra-rapid warming of specimens as well.
