AB  - Cell preservation technology is required to retain cell viability and functionality during storage. It is of critical importance for the development of biobanks and the delivery of emerging cell-based therapies including blood transfusion, immunotherapy, reparative and regenerative medicine, and fertility preservation. Cryopreservation at ultralow temperature is currently the main way of long-term cell storage. Preservation of cells in dried state at room temperature is an attractive strategy to overcome the limitations of refrigeration and enable easy transportation. Although achievements have been made in preservation of human, animal and bacteria cells, there is still much space for improving their survival rate and functionality. Cell injuries may easily occur during freezing and drying steps, especially for mammalian cells which are more delicate and freezing/desiccation sensitive. This article reviews the mechanisms of cell damage, describes the challenges for cell preservation, and presents the technologies and protectants used in this rapidly growing field.
