Abstract

If large pieces of tissue and organs are to be successfully stored at low temperatures, some means must be found to minimize the disruption of extracellular structures by the ice that develops during conventional cryopreservation methods. The use of sufficiently high concentrations of cryoprotectant (CPA) to vitrify rather than freeze the tissue is a possible solution to this problem, and the retention of function of embryos and elastic arteries after vitrification suggests that some cells and tissues at least can withstand exposure to the high concentrations of CPA necessary for this process to occur. There are, however, additional problems in applying vitrifying techniques to bulky tissues and organs. These are related to the additional time required for tissue equilibration of CPA to occur and the consequences for toxic injury, the difficulty in achieving sufficiently rapid and uniform cooling rates to produce the required glassy state, and the even more rapid and uniform warming rates that are necessary to avoid devitrification. Non-uniformity of temperature will increase the risk of mechanical stresses and fractures developing in the glass during rapid warming. This paper reviews possible strategies and the progress that has been made in overcoming these problems. This will include the permeation of CPA mixtures into whole tissues and possibilities for reducing their toxicity by the inclusion of adjuncts such as ice inhibitors and sugars. The warming of tissues by dielec…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
