Summary

The suitability of hydroxyethyl starch as a cryoprotective agent (CPA) for suspended keratinocytes was investigated. The study was initiated due to the need for a CPA which also allows for subsequent vacuum drying. Unfortunately, all established CPAs for cryopreservation of keratinocytes do not meet the demands for freeze-drying. The comparison of all results showed that hydroxyethyl starch is a promising alternative to the established CPAs for keratinocytes.
