The ability to successfully cryopreserve neural cells would represent an important advance with benefits to neural tissue engineering, neural transplantation, and neuroscience research. We have examined key factors responsible for damage to rat embryonic neural cells during cryopreservation using a two-step temperature profile, with an emphasis on the effects of cooling rate and plunge temperat...

Successful long-term preservation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis cells is important for sample transport, research, biobanking, and the development of new drugs, vaccines, biomarkers, and diagnostics. In this report, Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin and M. tuberculosis H37Ra were used as models of M. tuberculosis complex strains to study cryopreservation of M. tuberculosis complex ce...

it is difficult to explain how successful resuscitation is possible after 40 minutes' submersion.2 The reduced oxygen requirement in profound hypothermia has been suggested by some authors as the mechanism by which tissue viability is maintained in these circumstances,2 but this alone is an incomplete explanation, as for the submerged body to cool to a degree at which oxygen requirements are su...

Abstract Solar panel is used to harvest solar energy through the photovoltaic panels generate electricity. Due different intensity of sun, may be getting overheated during operation which affect performance. The research was conducted analyse efficiency liquid immersion cooling technique with water, measure differences water and nanofluids under technique, determine increase system additional c...

Experiments were carried out with cortical cells in twig bark of mulberry trees in winter in order to clarify the mechanism of survival at super-low temperatures with rapid cooling and rewarming. Attention was given to the relation between the existence of intracellular ice crystals and survival.Cortical cells were cooled rapidly by direct immersion into liquid nitrogen or isopentane cooled at ...

Objective: Hot water immersion (HWI) has been proven to be effective for the treatment of pain due to marine envenomation. Our preliminary study by simply measuring the temperature change over time on the hot water in our conventional metal tray method revealed a too rapid fall in water temperature that happened in minutes. The aim of this study was to review the current practice of HWI for pat...

BACKGROUND Pre-cooling is known to enhance exercise performance in soccer players. However, little information currently exists regarding precooling effects in Iranian young soccer players. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the effect of precooling (water immersion) on exhaustive performance in the heat ( temperature = 32 - 34°C, humidity = 50%). PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixteen yo...
