Summary

Cryopreservation using a rapid cooling rate of 25 K/min was found to be as effective as a slow cooling rate of 1 K/min for hamster islet, but it did not appear that this treatment reduced islet vulnerability to xenogenic graft rejection. Islet cells dissociated from rat islets could be cryopreserved by using a cooling rate of 1 K/min, and were aggregated into pseudoislets in an in-vitro culture. Using this treatment, there was a significant prolongation of survival time in allogenic transplantation.
