Current topics on sample preservation. A report on the progress of the ESA Topical Team. Preservation of fixed and non-fixed samples during space experimentation.
The existence of preservation problems is one of the most important consequences of Space Biological Research. The Topical Team is critically analyzing the currently performed procedures and is establishing the bases for a recommendation on new procedures, capable of overcoming the present constraints.
