Mathematically optimized cryoprotectant equilibration procedures for cryopreservation of human oocytes

Conclusions: The piecewise-constant procedures described in this study are experimentally facile and are predicted to be less toxic than conventional procedures for human oocyte cryopreservation. Moreover, the mathematical optimization approach described here will facilitate the design of cryopreservation procedures for other cell types.
