Abstract

This study was performed to find out the cryoprotectants for cryopreservation of trochophores and early D-shaped larvae of surf clam, Spisula sachalinensis. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol and methanol were used as cryoprotectant Each cryoprotectant was made to 1.0 M, 2.0 M, 3.0 M with dilution of 0.2 M fructose and 0.2 M sucrose. The trochophoers and early D-shaped larvae were immersed in each preparation for 10 minutes to reach equilibration and cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen. Survival rates of post-thawed trochophores and early D-shaped larvae in 2.0 M DMSO with 0.2 M sucrose were the highest as $91.4{\%}\;and\;78.9{\%}$, respectively.
