На сегодняшний день единственным доступным источником низких температур, удовлетворяющим условиям долгосрочного хранения клеток, является жидкий азот. Однако необходимо учитывать, что существует вероятность передачи инфекционных агентов между образцами через жидкий азот при их совместном размещении в криохранилище. В статье обсуждаются пути снижения риска перекрестной контаминации и комплексный подход к обеспечению биологической безопасности процесса криоконсервации в рамках создания криобанков.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Cryopreservation of sperm, oocyte and embryo plays an important role in modern assisted reproductive technologies. To date the only available source of low temperatures satisfying the conditions of long-term storage of cells is liquid nitrogen. However there is a possibility of transmission of infectious agents between samples in liquid nitrogen at their co-location in a cryostorage. The article discusses ways to reduce the risk of cross-contamination and the integrated approach to biosecurity.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>криохранение</kwd><kwd>сперматозоиды</kwd><kwd>ооциты</kwd><kwd>эмбрионы человека</kwd><kwd>вспомогательные репродуктивные технологии</kwd><kwd>жидкий азот</kwd><kwd>перекрестная контаминация</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>cryostorage</kwd><kwd>sperm</kwd><kwd>oocyte</kwd><kwd>human embryos</kwd><kwd>in vitro fertilisation</kwd><kwd>liquid nitrogen</kwd><kwd>cross contamination</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Wallis C., Melnik J.L.
