La vitrificación implica la inmersión directa de los óvulos en nitrógeno líquido, cuya temperatura es de -196°C, previo tratamiento de los mismos con sustancias crioprotectoras. La principal ventaja de esta metodología es que no se [forman] cristales de hielo que pueden lesionar al óvulo al actuar como verdaderas cuchillas sobre las estructuras celulares. 2, record 2, Spanish, - vitrificaci%C3%B3n
