Type of article: Article
Summary
Ethylene glycol is shown to be a cryoprotectant that permeates sufficiently rapidly into small elastic arteries to achieve cryoprotective tissue concentrations after relatively short periods of exposure. It is nontoxic at temperatures close to 0 deg C, both for the smooth muscle and the vascular endothelium, even at concentrations approaching those capable of causing vitrification. Therefore, ethylene glycol warrants further investigation as a possible cryoprotectant for the preservation of arteries for clinical use.
