found to signicantly increase the viability of cells in a small quartz micro capillary,
suggesting that the small alginate microcapsule is a good system for preserving cells.
In a study by the Sambanis group,
107
recombinant insulin-secreting C2C12 myo-
blasts were encapsulated in oxidized RGD-alginate and cryopreserved with slow
cooling or vitrication. As a quality control for the preservation procedures, the
metabolic activity and insulin secretion levels were assessed 3days after thawing
of the myoblasts containing samples. The results showed that vitried cells have
lower metabolic activity than freshly prepared myoblasts. On the other hand, no
differences in the metabolic activity were observed between the ...
