CryoStasis technology is based on the belief that stored biological material is best preserved by reducing its metabolic rate and ischemic interval.

This hypothesis begs the question: How cold can something be stored in stable liquid state without freezing? The freezing point of a substance depends on its water content. An orange will not freeze until its temperature is below -2.1°C.

During the period from 2006 until 2018 the authors undertook a series to studies to determine the benefits of cold shock inhibitors, cryoprotectants, compounds that promote desiccation resistance, and increase membrane plasticity during cooling.

CryoStasis announced earlier this month that Keith Millar has joined the fledgling firm as president and chief executive.
