ABSTRACT
In the last decade, vitrification protocols to preserve human ovarian tissue have been regularly reported, even more often than the protocols developed for large mammals, such as ruminants and nonhuman primates. In order to facilitate the use of domestic ruminants (cows, goats, and sheep) and nonhuman primates as animal models, application of similar protocols as used for human material is performed. Next to it, the addition of indispensable or exclusion of avoidable compounds in the vitrification of human ovarian tissue should be tested in such experiments with animal models. The objective of this mini-review is to summarize the current protocols used for the vitrification of ovarian tissue and to evaluate the vitrification methods in humans, nonhuman primates, and domestic ruminants.
