Article Abstract

Nanowarming of cryopreserved organs perfused with magnetic cryopreservation agents (mCPAs) could increase donor organ utilization by extending preservation time and avoiding damage caused by slow and nonuniform rewarming. Here, we report formulation of an mCPA containing superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) that are stable against aggregation in the cryopreservation agent VS55 before and after vitrification and nanowarming and that achieve high-temperature rise rates of up to 321°C/min under an alternating magnetic field. These SPIONs and mCPAs have low cytotoxicity against primary cardiomyocytes. We demonstrate successful perfusion of whole rat hearts with the mCPA and removal using Custodiol HTK solution, even after vitrification, cryostorage in liquid nitrogen for 1 week, and nanowarming under an alternating magnetic field. Quantification of SPIONs in the hearts using magnetic particle imaging demonstrates that the formulated mCPAs are suitable for perfusion, vitrification, and nanowarming of whole organs with minimal residual iron in tissues.

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.

Liver biobanking is a promising approach that saves the lives of patients with end-stage liver disease. Cryopreservation based on vitrification enables semi-permanent organ preservation, contributing to overcome the shortage of donors for liver transplants. A technical challenge in cryopreservation of transplantable organs lies in thawing methodology, and conventional convective warming cannot maintain the glassy state during thawing because of the large temperature gradient between the inner and outer parts of the organs, leading to ice formation and damage of cells in the organ.
