Basic Study on Non-Freezing Transport of Cells by High Pressure

Abstract

Despite the fact that optimum environmental conditions are different with cell types, conventional cell preservation techniques are generally cryopreservation or hypothermic storage at atmospheric pressure. We have summarized the recent our study on the effect of temperature and pressure on the survival of adherent cells, aiming for short-term cell preservation and transportation in a closed system without frozen, medium change or CO₂ supply.
