Ultra-rapid defrosting techniques of cryopreserved tissues and organs

The necessity for the technologies of cryopreservation of living tissues and organs is increasing. We have not yet effective means for cryopreservation of tissue and organ especially for the defrosting process, where the cryo-injury process advances both duringfreezing process and during thawing processes. Then, we devised and challenged to develop an ultra-rapid defrosting technique, in which tissues can be defrosted extremely rapidlyfrom the inside of the blood vessels by electro-magnetic induction. In this study, the electromagnetic induction heating cookers were converted and the production of the artificial red blood cell which generates heat by electromagnetic induction was challenged.
