The cryoprotectants concentration in the five vitrification solutions were low to reduce toxicity. The vitrification probability of the five solutions was 4811 % % during freezing and 4414 % % dur2 ing thawing at water bath respectively. VSD2 was more stable during thawing than the other four vitrification solutions and was used to cryopreserve sea perch embryos in the experiment. The durable time of sea perch neurula stage 202pair2muscle stage tail2bud stage heart2beating stage and prehatching stage in VSD2 was compared and the most suit2 able stage to cryopreserve by vitrification was selected. We found that the neurula stage sustained the least time in VSD2 and the heart2beating stage was the most suitable stage to cryopreserve by vitrification. The pre2hatching stage was also feasible to cryopreserve by vitrification. The effect of different elution times in 015 mol/ L sucrose was compared and elu2 tion for 10-20min in 015 mol/ L sucrose was found to be efficient. We used VSD2 as vitrification solution to cryopreserve ( ) sea perch embryos of different stages and got 211 % % transparent embryos after thawing. Further2 more two frozen2thawed embryos at heart2beating survived h after thawing. Another frozen2thawed embryo at pre2hatching stage hatched [ Acta Zoologica Sinica 49 (6) : ].
