Summary

ISOLATED PANCREATIC ISLETS WERE DISSOCIATED AND THEN COOLED AT A COOLING RATE OF 1 K/MIN TO 203 K (-70 DEG C), USING A PROGRAMMABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER. THEN THEY WERE STORED IN LIQUID NITROGEN FOR 2 WEEKS. THE AUTHORS CONCLUDE THAT DISSECTED PANCREATIC ISLET CELLS CAN BE CRYOPRESERVED WITHOUT A LOSS OF THEIR BIOLOGICAL ABILITIES.
