Summary

This in vitro study demonstrated that the addition of phospholipid vesicles (unsatured phosphatidylcholines) to the formulation used for freeze drying considerably enhanced the survival of freeze-dried human red blood cells. The authors predict that this approach may prove valuable in the long term preservation of other cell types. [Reprinted with permission from Elsevier. Copyright, 2005].
