[EN]Two cryopreservation methods, controlled cooling and encapsulation/vitrification, were studied in order to find an appropriate protocol to maintain microalgae cultures by exposing them to ultra-low temperatures (cryogenics). This study has shown that the most efficient cryopreserving method is the use of cryoprotectants, being Glycerol and DMSO the best options for this procedure, and dismissing the encapsulation/vitrification method due to the low effectiveness, which results in a low post-thaw viability rate and a higher demanding of labour and consumables.
