The metabolic assay results indicated that vitrified tissue had viability similar to fresh controls. More recent study with tissue-engineered blood vessels using polyglycolic acid scaffold showed that ice formation in tissue-engineered blood vessels was negligible in the vitrified specimens but extensive ( + of vessel area) in the extracellular matrix of frozen specimens. The vitrified tissue had a viability similar to fresh controls and the contractility results for vitrified samples were of fresh controls but markedly reduced in the frozen samples ( for fresh controls) (Dahl et al., 2006). Vitrification is a feasible storage method for tissue-engineered blood vessel constructs, and their successful storage brings these. | CLINICAL AND GENETIC ASPECTS OF EPILEPSY Edited by Zaid Afawi Clinical and Genetic Aspects of Epilepsy Edited by Zaid Afawi Published by InTech Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2011 InTech All chapters are Open Access articles distributed under the Creative Commons Non Commercial Share Alike Attribution license which permits to copy distribute transmit and adapt the work in any medium so long as the original work is properly cited.
