Supplementation of extender with chamuangone-enriched Garcinia cowa leaf extract improves quality parameters and longevity of cold-stored cat semen
CONCLUSION: 100 µg/mL chamuangone can improve sperm characteristics during 15 days of preservation at 4 degree C, keeping sperm alive (49.3 ± 5.2%) and moving (7.1 ± 2.4%). These results can be used for the development of breeding programs using technologically advanced reproductive procedures in domestic and wild cats. https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110212.PMID:38538371 (Source: Cryo-Letters)

Viscoelastic properties of decellularized and freeze-dried human dermis between i909c and 40cC
CONCLUSION: Freeze-dried ADM was protected in the glassy carbohydrate matrix. DMA observed two viscoelastic relaxations (i.e., alpha process at -20 degree C and beta process at -60 degree C). Overall changes in G' and G'' of freeze-dried ADM were relatively small within one order of magnitude between -90 degree C and 40 degree C. https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110612.PMID:38538373 (Source: Cryo-Letters)

The comet assay as a method for assessing dna damage in cryopreserved samples
Cryo Letters. 2024 Jan-Feb;45(1):1-15.ABSTRACTThe preservation of the nuclear genome's integrity is paramount for the viability and overall health of cells, tissues, and organisms. DNA, being susceptible to damage under physiological conditions and vulnerable to both endogenous and environmental factors, faces constant threats. To assess DNA damage and repair within individual eukaryotic cells, the comet assay presents itself as a versatile, gel electrophoresis-based, relatively simple, and highly sensitive method. Originally designed to monitor DNA damage and repair within populations of mammalian cells, the comet assay h...

Effects of stearic acid on the embryo cryopreservation in mouse
CONCLUSION: In vitro SA exposure lowered the total amount of intracellular lipids and unsaturation in mouse embryos. The changes were accompanied with a significantly lower efficacy of embryo cryopreservation. https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110512.PMID:38538369 (Source: Cryo-Letters)

The technology in cryotechnology
Cryo Letters. 2023 Nov-Dec;44(6):314-326.ABSTRACTThe process of freezing biological material at extremely low temperatures is known as cryopreservation. To ensure the preservation of cells and tissues over an extended period of time, low temperatures are applied since biological processes, including the biochemical ones, come to a halt under cryogenic conditions and thus it is possible to maintain their structural and functional integrity. The field of cryopreservation gained more prominence in the 20th century and emerged as an unavoidable technology for different applications such as cell therapy, tissue engineering, or ...
