    摘要: The method of preservation by vitrification, described in the present application, provides for storage of samples at higher temperatures than in conventional methods and can be applied to cells, multicellular tissues, organs and organisms. The method of the present invention includes preparing a solution of vitrification non-permeating co-solutes (amino acids, betaines, carbohydrates, or other non-permeating co-solutes that effectively decrease the chemical potential of permeating cryoprotectants in aqueous solutions), a permeating cryoprotectant and a non-permeating cryoprotectant (polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol, dextran, hydroxy ethyl starch, Ficoll, etc.), contacting a sample with the vitrification solution and storing the sample at a storage temperature. The method also includes the step of rehydrating the preserved sample in a rehydration solution prepared in the manner of the vitrification storage solution. The present invention is also directed to a vitrification solution and a rehydration solution as described in connection with the method.

    摘要: A method of preserving sensitive biological dispersions, suspensions, emulsions and solutions by forming stable foams from fluid materials to be dehydrated, as an aid both to the drying of one or more biologically active substrates in the fluid and as an aid in preparing an easily divisible dried product suitable for further commercial use. The stable foams are formed by partially removing the water to form a viscous liquid and by further subjecting the reduced liquid to vacuum, to cause it to "boil" during further drying at temperatures substantially lower than 100 degrees C. In other words, reduced pressure is applied to viscous solutions or suspensions of biologically active materials to cause the solutions or suspensions to foam during boiling, and during the foaming process further solvent removal causes the ultimate production of a stable open-cell or closed-cell foam.
