Abstract: Successful protocols for cryopreservation of living cells can be designed if the physicochemical conditions to preclude intracellular ice formation (IIF) can be defined. Unfortunately, all attempts ...

Abstract: The objective of this investigation was to gain a deeper understanding of the intracellular events that precede photolysis of cells. A model system, consisting of malignant melanoma cells ...

Abstract: Here we demonstrate the microfabrication of deep (>25 μm) polymeric microstructures created by replica-molding polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) from microfabricated Si substrates. The use of PDMS ...

Abstract: The incorporation of monolayers of cultured hepatocytes into an extracorporeal perfusion system has become a promising approach for the development of a temporary bioartificial liver (BAL) support ...
