PLATELET CRYOPRESERVATION.
Author(s) : SHEPHERD K. M.
Type of article: Article
Summary
PLATELETS WERE CRYOPRESERVED IN THE PRESENCE OF 5% DMSO AT A CONTROLLED RATE OF FREEZING OF 1 K/MIN AND STORED IN LIQUID NITROGEN FOR UP TO 3 MONTHS. A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF PLATELETS OCCURRED AT THE PLATELET CONCENTRATION STEP THROUGH ADHESION OF PLATELETS TO THE BAG WALLS. A SMALL LOSS OF PLATELET AGGREGATION WAS SEEN WITH ALL AGENTS FOLLOWING CRYOPRESERVATION. NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN AGGREGATION OR RECOVERY WERE SEEN OVER THE 3 MONTHS' STORAGE PERIOD. DMSO WAS SHOWN TO HAVE NO DELETERIOUS EFFECT ON PLATELET FUNCTION IN VITRO.
