A Bioinspired And Chemically Defined Alternative To Dimethyl Sulfoxide For The Cryopreservation Of Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells
The cryopreservation of hematopoietic cells using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and serum is a common procedure used in transplantation. However, DMSO has clinical and biological side effects due to its toxicity, and serum introduces variation and safety risks. Explore the development of a novel class of ice-interactive cryoprotectants inspired by natural antifreeze proteins.

Creating time: How emulating nature can help us improve outcomes for organ transplant patients
I have spent my life thinking about time. How to pause it. How to create more of it. How to extend it, so that people

Taking The Toxins Out Of Cell Therapy Storage: A New Cryopreservation Molecule
Inspired by nature, a new type of cryoprotectant has emerged as a safer alternativeto traditional chemicals. The preservation of living cells and tissues is an

Novel Cryopreservation For Cell And Gene Therapies
The concept of cooling organic materials in order to slow their decay is as old as civilization itself. For the preservation of food, it is

Next-Generation DMSO-Free & Serum-Free Cryopreservation For Cell And Gene Therapy
Existing standards in cryopreservation use 5-10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) andoften serum. These products have not been significantly improved for over 50years. DMSO exhibits acute toxicity

Chemically Defined, Safe And Effective Cryopreservation
XT-Thrive® contains fully synthetic biomimetics (peptoids) which are non-toxic, and prevent harmful ice crystal formation in cells at temperatures down to-196°C. Under polarized light ice
