At least six major areas of cryobiology can be identified: 1) study of cold-adaptation of microorganisms, plants (cold hardiness), and animals, both invertebrates and vertebrates (including hibernation), 2) cryopreservation of cells, tissues, gametes, and embryos of animal and human origin for (medical) purposes of long-term storage by cooling to temperatures below the freezing point of water.

Depending on the plant species, maximum freezing tolerance can be reached after only two weeks of exposure to low temperatures. [2] The ability to control intercellular ice formation during freezing is critical to the survival of freeze-tolerant plants. [ 3 ]
