Résumé

Estimated intracellular effective thermal diffusivity (ETD) was used to evaluate the viability of cryopreserved biological tissue. Artificial tissues were prepared using human fibroblasts cultured for 2 days in a collagen sponge. The artificial tissue was frozen at cooling rates of 30 to 700°C/min from 4 to -196°C in culture medium containing propylene glycol. The temperature of the artificial tissue was then increased stepwise from -190 to -185°C. ETD was determined using the Laplace transform method and post-thaw viability was evaluated using a trypan blue exclusion assay. The extended Maxwell-Eucken equation estimated intracellular ETD, which decreased with increasing cooling rates as the tissues approached the vitrification state. There was also a correlation between increasing estimated ETD and decreasing viability. Therefore, estimated ETD can serve as the evaluation index when comparing the differing cryopreservation states of biological tissue.
