Preservation of enteroviruses by freeze-drying.

چکیده
A method was developed for freeze-dry stabilization of poliovirus type 3. An ultrafiltration procedure was used to remove salts from infected tissue culture fluid, and the virus was freeze-dried after suspension in an alkaline organic buffer. This method was further tested with other picornaviruses including poliovirus types 1 and 2, coxsackieviruses A9, A20, B2, and B5, echovirus 11, and the encephalomyocarditis virus. Freeze-dried preparations of the poliovirus could be shipped to distant laboratories at ambient temperature with excellent retention of infectivity. Data are presented showing effects of freeze-drying as well as results of exposure to temperatures to 37 C.

Sperm freeze-drying; effects on sperm parameters
Today, sperm cryopreservation is a routine practice in infertility clinics. One of the alternative methods to preserve sperm is freeze-drying. This process consists of three steps. The first step is sample freezing, during which the solvent is separated from the solvent. Water forms ice crystals and the solute is placed between the ice crystals. Freezing may be done in a separate device or in a...
متن کاملSuccessful Long-Term Preservation of Rat Sperm by Freeze-Drying
BACKGROUND Freeze-drying sperm has been developed as a new preservation method where liquid nitrogen is no longer necessary. An advantage of freeze-drying sperm is that it can be stored at 4 °C and transported at room temperature. Although the successful freeze-drying of sperm has been reported in a number of animals, the possibility of long-term preservation using this method has not yet been ...
متن کاملEffect of pressure at primary drying of freeze-drying mouse sperm reproduction ability and preservation potential.
Freeze-dried spermatozoa are capable of participating in normal embryonic development after injection into oocytes and thus useful for the maintenance of genetic materials. We recently reported that long-term preservation of freeze-dried mouse spermatozoa by conventional methods requires temperatures lower than -80 degrees C. Successful permanent preservation of mouse spermatozoa at much higher...

Freeze-dried mouse spermatozoa can be used for normal embryonic development after injection into oocytes, thus indicating that freeze-drying is a useful method for the storage and transportation of genetic materials from animals. We recently reported that storage of freeze-dried mouse spermatozoa requires maintenance at temperatures lower than -80 C for long-term preservation and a pressure of ...
متن کاملSperm Preservation by Freeze-Drying for the Conservation of Wild Animals
Sperm preservation is a useful technique for the maintenance of biological resources in experimental and domestic animals, and in wild animals. A new preservation method has been developed that enables sperm to be stored for a long time in a refrigerator at 4 °C. Sperm are freeze-dried in a solution containing 10 mM Tris and 1 mM EDTA. Using this method, liquid nitrogen is not required for the ...
