Magnetic cryopreservation has been successfully used for tooth banking with satisfactory implantation outcomes, suggesting that the method preserves human periodontal ligament cells and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). Therefore, magnetic cryopreservation may be applied for the preservation of DPSCs; however, this method has not been evaluated yet. A reliable cryopreservation method for live-cell preservation is important for the clinical applications of regenerative medicine. The conventional slow-freezing procedure with 10% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) may not be appropriate for stem cell-based therapies because DMSO is cytotoxic. The objective of this study was to investigate whether magnetic cryopreservation can be applied for DPSC cryopreservation. Cells isolated from human dental pulp were subjected to magnetic cryopreservation. Postthawing cell viability, adhesion, proliferation, expression of markers for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), differentiation ability of magnetically cryopreserved DPSCs and DNA stability were compared to those of cells subjected to the conventional slow-freezing method. The results indicated that a serum-free cryopreservation medium (SFM) containing 3% DMSO is optimal for magnetic cryopreservation. Post-thaw magnetically cryopreserved DPSCs express MSC markers, and perform osteogenesis and adipogenesis after induction similarly to fresh MSCs. No significant DNA damage was found in magnetically cryopreserved DPSCs. Magnetic cryopreservation is thus a reliable and effective method for storage of DPSCs. The smaller amount of DMSO required in SFM for cryopreservation is beneficial for the clinical applications of post-thaw cells in regenerative medicine.

The effective preservation of cashew germplasm faces significant challenges due to the loss of germination vigor over medium and long periods. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the biometric and chemical parameters that determine the germination and vigor of cashew seed. Seeds from seven cashew genotypes stored under refrigeration (18 ± 2 °C) were evaluated for biometric characteristics and post-emergence development analyzed by NMR, UPLC-QTOF-MS and GC-MS methods for profiling primary and secondary metabolites along with fatty acids.

Seminal plasma composition has important role in sperm functionality and its freezability. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that seminal plasma (SP) oxidative status and metabolome are associated with fresh semen characteristics and freezability of bull sperm. To accomplish this objective, oxidative status markers and metabolome of SP of ejaculates obtained from 20 Holstein bulls (3 for each bull) were analyzed using spectrophotometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (H NMR).

Herein, a mesoporous magnetic chitosan-salicylaldehyde/calcium oxide nanoparticle (CS-SL/CaO/FeO) biocomposite adsorbent that was prepared via freeze-drying. The CS-SL/CaO/FeO was utilized for the adsorption of ramazol brilliant blue (RBB) dye from aqueous solution. The physicochemical properties of the CS-SL/CaO/FeO were evaluated using diverse characterization techniques, including BET, XRD, FTIR, FESEM-EDX, CHNS, and pH.

The utility of employing solid-state NMR (SSNMR) to assess parameters governing the stability of a lyophilized IgG2 protein was the focus of the present work. Specifically, the interaction between the sugar stabilizer (sucrose) and protein component was measured using SSNMR and compared to physical and chemical stability data obtained from thermally stressed samples. H T and H T relaxation times were measured by SSMNR for 5 different formulation conditions, and the resultant values were used to examine local mobility and phase separation, respectively.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent degenerative musculoskeletal disorder, which is particularly common in older population. While conventional treatments have limited effectiveness, the development of more effective therapeutic strategies is necessary to address this primary source of pain and disability. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSCs) offer a promising therapeutic approach for treating knee OA.
