Spring 2013
There has been significant interest in the literature on the possibility of using red blood cells (RBCs) derived from umbilical cord blood (cord RBCs) for neonatal transfusions. Low stability of cord RBCs during hypothermic storage necessitates the development of a cryopreservation method to...

Spring 2013
The success of cellular cryopreservation is indicated by the state of post-thawed cells. Using human umbilical vein endothelial cells as a model, the cryobiological response to interrupted cooling protocols was evaluated with a combination of fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry....

Spring 2019
Mathematical models of cryopreservation processes are an important tool in the development of cryopreservation protocols that successfully avoid cryoinjury. Theoretical models of solution thermodynamic behaviour, known as solution theories, lie at the core of many cryopreservation models,...

Obtaining Temperature Dependence of Cell Membrane Permeability Parameters Using Non-Ideal Thermodynamic Assumptions to Mathematically Model Real Cryopreservation Protocols
DownloadSpring 2023
Cryopreservation is the process of preserving biological matter such as cells, tissues, and organs, at sub-zero temperatures for long-term storage. Cells at low temperatures are susceptible to mechanical damage due to intracellular ice formation and osmotic injuries related to increasing...

Fall 2015
Cryopreserving cells for human health therapeutics is a multidisciplinary process with great complexity. Cryopreservation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) has facilitated vascular biology research since they were first isolated in 1973 [59]; however identifying key variables to...

Spring 2010
Mathematical modelling of cellular osmotic responses to low temperatures is being increasingly used to overcome obstacles in the successful cryopreservation of cells and tissues. Current cryobiological models often contain simplifying assumptions regarding the solution behaviour of the...
