Recent advances in the fundamental theories in cryobiology using thermodynamic principles have created new opportunities for innovative methodologies in cryobiology. This thesis tested the hypothesis that calculated indicators of the two-factor hypothesis of cryoinjury, depending on cellular...

Characterization of cryobiological responses in TF-1 cells using interrupted freezing procedures
Download2014-09-22
McGann, L. E., Elliott, J. A., Ross-Rodriguez, L. U.
Cryopreservation currently is the only method for long-term preservation of cellular viability and function for uses in cellular therapies. Characterizing the cryobiological response of a cell type is essential in the approach to designing and optimizing cryopreservation protocols. For cells used...

Cryopreserved amniotic membrane as transplant allograft: viability and post-transplant outcome
Download2015-09-11
Hayward, K., Holovati, J.L. , Mokoena, T., Marquez-Curtis, L.A., Perepelkin, N.M.J., Elliott, J.A.W. , Bentley, M.J., McGann, L.E., Ross-Rodriguez, L.U.
Amniotic membrane (AM) transplantation is increasingly used in ophthalmological and dermatological surgeries to promote re-epithelialization and wound healing. Biologically active cells in the epithelial and stromal layers deliver growth factors and cytokines with anti-inflammatory,...

Large articular cartilage defects have proven difficult to treat and often result in osteoarthritis of the affected joint. Cryopreservation of articular cartilage can provide an increased supply of tissues for osteochondral allograft but cryoprotective agents are required; however, few studies...

Background Vitrification is a method of cryopreservation by which cells and tissues can be preserved at low temperatures using cryoprotective agents (CPAs) at high concentrations (typically ⩾6.0 M) to limit the harmful effects of ice crystals that can form during cooling processes. However, at...

Demo of learning final devoicing
2014-07-23
This is a Java program that simulates the acquisition of final devoicing using toy data as in Ch.2 of my doctoral thesis "Probabilistic Selection of Input in Morphophonological Acquisition".

Vitrification of articular cartilage (AC) could enhance tissue availability but requires high concentrations of cyroprotective agents (CPAs). This study investigated relative injuries caused by commonly used CPAs. We hypothesized that the in situ chondrocyte dose–injury relationships of five...

Investigating cryoinjury using simulations and experiments: 1. TF-1 cells during two-step freezing (rapid cooling interrupted with a hold time)
Download2014-09-22
McGann, L. E., Ross-Rodriguez, L. U., Elliott, J. A.
There is significant interest in designing a cryopreservation protocol for hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) which does not rely on dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) as a cryoprotectant. Computer simulations that describe cellular osmotic responses during cooling and warming can be used to optimize the...
