Summary

BOVINE MARROW GRANULOCYTE / MACROPHAGE AND ERYTHROID PROGENITOR CELLS MAINTAINED VIABILITY AFTER STORAGE IN LIQUID NITROGEN FOR 2 TO 4 WEEKS. THE GRANULOCYTE / MACROPHAGE PROGENITORTOR CELLS MAINTAINED 100% VIABILITY FOR 4 WEEKS, WHILE THE ERYTHROID PROGENITOR CELLS MAINTAINED 100% VIABILITY FOR AT LEAST 2 WEEKS. THE OPTIMUM CONCENTRATION OF EITHER DMSO (DIMETHYL SULPHOXIDE) OR GLYCEROL WAS FOUND TO BE 5-10%. DMSO WAS SUPERIOR TO GLYCEROL AS A CRYOPRESERVATIVE OF BOVINE GRANULOCYTE / MACROPHAGE PROGENITOR CELLS. GLYCEROL WAS FOUND TO BE UNABLE TO CRYOPRESERVE BOVINE ERYTHROID PROGENITOR CELLS.
