I work in a lab and we typically keep stock samples of cells (bacterial and yeast) at -80C in 10% glycerol (the 10% glycerol prevents damage to the cells when freezing). i don't have a -80C freezer but managed to freeze some us-56 slurry with 10% glycerol, i figure it mightn't be good indefinatly but it should last at least a year. anyway, i was wondering does anyone else freeze yeast as an alternative to using slants?
