Four different freezing protocols were designed: a controlled cooling device designed to cool at 1°C/min, a three-step protocol (-20°C for 2 h, -70°C for 2 h, liquid nitrogen-LN2), a two-step protocol (-70°C for 2 h, LN2), and a one-step protocol (LN2). All cells were stored in LN2 after cryopreservation. The cryoprotective agents (CPA) used were ethanol (EtOH) and methanol (MeOH) at 10 and 20%, and seawater (FSW) was used as a control. Viability measurements using cell counts showed that all cryopreservation protocols were relatively successful, and no trends were observed regarding freezing protocol or CPA used. After 19 weeks in culture the viability of samples which had high biomass was determined by the fluorescent assay CellTiter Blue™. The most viable cultures were those cryopreserved by a two-step protocol using 20% MeOH or 20% EtOH as a CPA. A genetic examination of the DNA of these samples using Symbiodinium-specific PCR primers confirmed that the composition of the culture had not changed. For the first time, we report that Symbiodinium sp. isolated from a gorgonian can be cryopreserved and subsequently cultured successfully.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Cryopreservation of the dinoflagellate symbiont of the octocoral Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-15 01:32:54.660063","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2007,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2016-07-07","DateCreate":"2016-07-07","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000248855600006","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1007/s00227-007-0704-2"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":259768,"PubliDate":2007,"Pagination":"549-556","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"152","Issue":"3","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43352,"SerRR":"Marine Biology: International Journal on Life in Oceans and Coastal Waters.
