This knowledge is practically applied in three fields: cryonics cryopreservation and cryosurgery Cryobiology is the branch of biology that studies the effects of low temperatures on organisms (most often for the purpose of achieving cryopreservation ). The word cryobiology (from the Greek words "cryo" = cold, "bios" = life, and "logos" = science) literally signifies the science of life at low temperatures. In practice, this field comprises the study of any biological material or system (e.g., proteins , cells, tissues, organs, or organisms) subjected to any temperature below normal (ranging from moderately hypothermic conditions to cryogenic temperatures). At least 6 major areas of cryobiology can be identified: 1. Study of cold-adaptation of

8. Cryobiology And Anhydrobiology - Physical Stresses In Cells At Low Temperature A
   An introduction to cellular cryobiology and anhydrobiology.  
   http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/~jw/cryoblurb.html
   
   Extractions: Gary Bryant Department of Applied Physics RMIT Univeristy , Melbourne Low temperature damage in cells can be divided into damage produced by three effects: (i) low temperature per se ; (ii) direct effects of freezing and (iii) indirect effects of freezing . Cryobiology (the study of life at low temperatures) and anhydrobiology (the study of life at low water contents) have some features in common. This is because, in environmental freezing, one of the major causes of damage is freezing induced dehydration. This essay gives an introduction to several types of cryobiological and anhydrobiological damage at the cellular level. It concentrates however on freezing- or desiccation-induced cellular dehydration, and on our biophysical research in this area and on related systems. References to related scientific papers are given at the end. The study of damage produced by freezing and/or low temperatures and by low water contents is important in a variety of fields, of which here are some examples: In medicine, surgeons would like to be able to cryopreserve organs for transplants. To date, however, the cryopreservation of large organs (except blood) has a very poor success rate. Blood and sex cells are routinely frozen and thawed for later use but even then, in many cases, the cellular survival rates are unacceptably low. Cryopreservation is also important in maintaining germplasm for important or endangered species. Frost damage is an important agronomic concern: if farmers can get a crop into the ground before the last frost, then they have a longer growing season and a greater yield. Damage in seeds during drying and rehydration may also be agronomically and ecologically important. Drying and freeze drying are also important in the food industry.

   Extractions: (August 2004) To the scientific community, biotechnology is a field of study aimed at understanding how things work at the cellular or biochemical level; with the ultimate goal of deploying that knowledge to control or manipulate life. One topic in biotechnology that swings between the practical and the conceptual is the field of cryobiology. Mike Myers in Austin Powers: The Spy who Shagged Me , Tom Cruise in Vanilla Sky and Mel Gibson in Forever Young Defrosting a Mystery: Cryobiology Defined Through evolution, certain organisms have adapted to survive at low temperatures well below the freezing point of water (0°C). These organisms have the ability to create biomolecules that act as anti-freeze, lowering the temperature at which intracellular and to some extent, extracellular ice forms. In Figure 1, the scale of standard physiological temperatures for several species is shown. At -20°C, the Himalayan midge is still biologically active and is therefore able to prevent water from freezing in its cells. Just as food is stored in the deep freezer, low temperatures have the ability to preserve life. Intact DNA and proteins from the woolly mammoth can be still be found some 50,000 years later in the frozen tundra of Siberia. On the other hand, these temperatures also have the ability to destroy. Frozen crops or frostbite on ears or toes are examples where the cold has damaged cells so badly that they are destroyed. It is this dual nature of the cold to preserve and destroy that has created its own special field of cryobiology in the entire subject of biotechnology.

    Extractions: Welcome to the International Cryobiology Young Researchers Group Website Well, the holiday season is upon us, which means that 2007 is nearly over. This time of year provides an opportunity to reflect upon our accomplishments and dreams for 2008. The CRYO2007 conference was great fun. Thanks to continued generous support from The Society for Cryobiology, and individual contributions from the members of the editorial board, we were able to organize several fun events. The setting, in the Canadian Rockies, proved to be spectacular, as some of the photos below attest. The ICYR provd to be a good forum for meeting friends, old and new alike, and sharing the joy of being young! My goals for ICYR in the coming year is to establish our organization as a legal not-for-profit entity. Completing this task will require the formulations of bylaws for the group, and the develoment of a Board of Governors. Due to the transient nature of the professional positions most of us find ourselves in, it is likely that turnover on the board will occur annually. At this time, I do not see that this will be a problem, considering the nature of our group. It will provide a good learning opportunity for those of us who become involved at that level (and I hope to recruit some of you to join me in this effort). As we move forward to 2008, take time from your hectic schedules to reflect upon our collective fortunes. Our group is composed of great people, and together we can continue to build and promote the field of low temperature biology and preservation sciennce.

    Extractions: The wood frog ( Rana sylvatica ) inhabits forests ranging from the Appalachians to the Maritime provinces and west to northern Alaska, even to the Arctic Circle. Its overwintering site is a shallow burrow in the forest floor, well within the frost zone, that is overlain by leaves and other organic detritus. Our studies in southern Ohio suggest that wood frogs are subjected to several freezing episodes that typically last several days and expose the frogs to temperatures that fall as lows as -2° to -4°C; however, in more northerly regions they probably experience much lower temperatures and longer periods of frost. Initiation of Freezing Several mechanisms ensure that wood frogs freeze without supercooling extensively. First, owing to the highly permeable nature of amphibian skin, ice surrounding the frog can instantly trigger the freezing of the body fluids. Also, the frog’s winter refuge hosts an abundance of ice nucleating agents, such as various mineral particulates, organic acids, and certain microbes, that may cause the frog to freeze. Laboratory experiments suggest that ingestion of these agents promote ice formation in freeze-tolerant frogs. In fact, several strains of bacteria expressing potent ice nucleating activity have been cultured from the intestines of winter-collected wood frogs, indicating that such bacteria are retained throughout hibernation (

    Extractions: by Gregory M. Fahy, PhD Cryobiology usually thought of as the study of the effects of subfreezing temperatures on biological systems stands at the interface between physics and biology. The physical principles of cryobiology are universal, which provides some coherence to the field, but the biosphere contains many surprises and twists, which adds endless fascination. The present very abbreviated overview is primarily directed at living systems exposed to temperatures below zero degrees Celsius, but it should be printed out that the cryobiology tent covers all branches of low-temperature biology, including the effects of temperatures above freezing. Technically, cryobiology is actually the study of living systems at any temperature below the standard physiological range. This includes, for example, human hypothermia (both deliberate and accidental) and even natural hibernation, which is a physiological modification of sleep that has allowed the physiological temperature range to be stretched to include temperatures that were previously fatal. Above-freezing temperatures can be just as lethal as sub-freezing temperatures, a fact that has significant ecological and agricultural significance.
