Author(s) : MEHL P., BOUTRON P.

Type of article: Article

Summary

WITH 20% 1,2-BUTANEDIOL, SURVIVAL RATES OR ERYTHROCYTES COOLED DOWN TO 77 K (-196 DEG C) SHOW A CLASSICAL MAXIMUM OF 80% OF SURVIVAL FOR COOLING RATES OF ABOUT 1 TO 1.8 K/S WHEN SUBSEQUENT WARMING IS RAPID. THE TOXICITY OF THIS COMPOUND DOES NOT ALLOW STUDIES OF CRYOPROTECTION FOR HIGHER CONCENTRATIONS. ERYTHROCYTES HEMOLYSE RAPIDLY AT 273 K (0 DEG C) IN BUFFERED SOLUTIONS WITH 25% OR MORE 1,2-BUTANEDIOL.
