title: Effect of long-term exposure at suprazero temperatures on activity and viability of human ovarian cortex.
abstract: The experiment was designed to determine the optimal time and temperature for long-distance transport. Prolonged suprazero temperature exposure of ovarian tissue for 26 hours has no negative influence on follicle quality.
