The variation in transparency of amniotic membrane used in ocular surface regeneration [PDF]
Background/aims: Scant consideration has been given to the variation in structure of the human amniotic membrane (AM) at source or to the significance such differences might have on its clinical transparency.

Pretreatment with melatonin improves ovarian tissue cryopreservation for transplantation
Backgroud Melatonin has anti-inflammatory and antioxidative actions at the mitochondrial level. This indole-containing molecule may protect ovarian grafts during the process of cryopreservation.

Freezing and chemical preservatives alter the stable isotope values of carbon and nitrogen of the Asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea) [PDF]
We tested the impacts of most common sample preservation methods used for aquatic sample materials on the stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen in clams, a typical baseline indicator organism for many aquatic food web studies utilising stable ...

Comparison of Tissue Preservation using Formalin and Ethanol as Preservative Formula
Background: Tissue preservation can be performed through embalming, by providing the chemical embalming fluid to the human remains. Formalin’s preservative formula is the foundation for modern methods of embalming.

Stepped vitrification technique for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation [PDF]
The advantage of stepped vitrification (SV) is avoiding ice crystal nucleation, while decreasing the toxic effects of high cryoprotectant concentrations. We aimed to test this method for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation.

Effects of fixation and preservation on tissue elastic properties measured by quantitative optical coherence elastography (OCE) [PDF]
Fixed and preserved tissues have been massively used in the development of biomedical equipment and instrumentation. Not only the tissue morphology, but also its mechanical properties need to be considered in the fixation and preservation procedures ...

Islets of Langerhans Are Protected from Inflammatory Cell Recruitment during Reperfusion of Rat Pancreas Grafts [PDF]
Background: Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury plays a pivotal role in the development of graft pancreatitis, with ischemia time representing one of its crucial factors.

National Ovarian and Testicular Tissue Transport and Cryopreservation Service (NOTTCS)
Background: Recognised female fertility preservation strategies include oocyte and embryo cryopreservation. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is no longer experimental, and the only option for children and pre-pubertal girls.

Controls on gut phosphatisation : the trilobites from the Weeks Formation Lagerstätte (Cambrian; Utah) [PDF]
Despite being internal organs, digestive structures are frequently preserved in Cambrian Lagerstätten. However, the reasons for their fossilisation and their biological implications remain to be thoroughly explored.
