Cytostasis

Cytostasis (or Cytological Preservation) was a enhanced and highly sufficient form of stasis. It utilized full artificial, biochemical, and even biomechanical ceasing of all cellular activity within all 11 organ systems.

From the point of being induced, cytostasis caused cells not to age or deteriorate even at a percentage of a percent. Starfleet utilized experimental cytostasis units on 5 starships, two known ones are the USS Perier and Inventum. If these were to fail, cryogenic stasis would take over, although it had less influence then cytostasis.

The most enhanced form of Cytostasis was the Crataxian Cytostasis Unit. Tricorders, even internal sensors could not detect the slightest cellular nor biological activity.
