Use of Inert Gases for the Preservation of Nuclear Blood Cells

Abstract The subject of the study was the stability of human white blood cell membranes subject to noble gases (xenon ad krypton, 0.6 mPa) clathrate cryoanabiosis (‒80°C). A unique portable stainless steel low pressure container with a compartment for flexible plastic container was designed to ensure that the cells are saturated with gases. The samples were warmed after 1 and 30 days in a water bath (+38°C) for 35-50 sec, while the container was being tilted (2-3 times per second), until the temperature of the biological object reached +3±1°C. It was demonstrated that after 30 days of cl...
