Appl. No.:

17/111030

Inventors:

- Fort Collins CO, US
Myles J. Shepherd - Nunn CO, US
Raul Gonzalez-Castro - Fort Collins CO, US
Robert F. Anders - Fort Collins CO, US
James A. Herickhoff - Fort Collins CO, US

International Classification:

A01N 1/02

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention may provide effective processing of materials through phase transitions with a mobile phase transition device which may have a frozen storage area and a thawing area and which can be used to thaw biological materials near a recipient of the materials. A mobile phase transition device may be automated so that the thawing of materials can precisely follow thawing protocols.

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention provide plant-derived extracts as a replacement for traditional cryoprotectants used to freeze tissue and cell s providing a method to decrease post-thaw damage as created by the cryoprotectant. For example, extracts from the genus or other plant sources or compositions may be used as a cryoprotectant or may even be used to replace at least some of a traditional cryoprotectant.
