Summary

Data on the permeability of liver tissue to the cryoprotective agent DMSO by diffusion have been obtained non-invasively using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy during both exposure and washout. Results demonstrate that in compact tissues, equilibration with tissue water is not complete for up to 2 hours, while the kinetics for influx and efflux were similar. These observations are discussed in relation to the development of protocols for cryoprotectant exposure in tissue cryopreservation.
