A method is disclosed for cryopreservation of cardiocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells or mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue or bone marrow, the method maintaining the function of the cardiocytes derived from differentiated pluripotent stem cells or mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue or bone marrow, and yet reducing the possibility for tumorigenesis of undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells or mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue or bone marrow. A method is also disclosed for cryopreservation of cardiocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells or mesenchymal stem cells (derived from adipose tissue or bone marrow, the method including dissociating cells from a cell population which has been induced to differentiate into cardiocytes from pluripotent stem cells or mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue or bone marrow.
