DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY (DSC) OF SUSPENDED SINGLE CELLS: CRYOBEHAVIOUR OF FREEZE-THAW CYCLES.

Author(s) : LEI C. M.

Type of article: Article

Summary

IN ORDER TO INVESTIGATE THE FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO CRYOINJURY OF SUSPENDED SINGLE CELLS, THE AUTHORS USED DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY TO ANALYZE THE CRYOBEHAVIOUR OF VARIOUS KINDS OF CELLS WHICH ARE COMMONLY USED IN MEDICAL LABORATORY IN FREEZING AND THAWING PROCESS. THE SCANNING TEMPERATURES RANGED FROM 293 TO 173 K (20 TO -100 DEG C) AND COOLING RATES FROM 1 TO 50 K/MIN. THE EFFECTS OF CELL CONCENTRATIONS, CRYOPROTECTIVE AGENTS AND CULTURE MEDIUMS ON DSC RECORDS ARE PRESENTED.
