Uses of Liquid Nitrogen in Clinical and Anatomic Laboratories

Liquid nitrogen is widely used in clinical and anatomic laboratories because it can achieve ultra-low temperatures. It is commonly employed in cryopreservation techniques, where biological samples such as cells, tissues, and reproductive materials are stored at very low temperatures to maintain their viability. Additionally, it is utilized in the freezing and storage of blood and blood products.
