Shaped by context: Evolutionary trajectories of desiccation tolerance in land plants

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Desiccation tolerance (DT), the ability to survive near‐complete cellular dehydration, is widespread in diaspores but rare in the vegetative tissues of land plants. The patchy and punctuated phylogenetic distribution of vegetative desiccation tolerance (VDT) suggests that the trait is both ancient and recurrent, yet the evolutionary ...

A simple method of human sperm vitrification

MethodsX, 2019
Human sperm vitrification is a novel method of sperm freezing which achieves cryopreservation due to ultra-rapid cooling rates that prevent ice-crystal formation.

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

Use of Eco-friendly recipients for vitrification of Hyphessobrycon boulengery Spermatogonial cells [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of the gelatin and Hypromellose capsules as recipients to vitrification of lambari spermatogonial cells. In experiment 1, four protocols to vitrification (P1, P2, P3 and P4) were tested. The protocol P3

Investigating the Cytoskeleton of DRGs Using Cryo‐Electron Microscopy and Deep Learning

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a method for determining the ultrastructural organization of axons and varicosities of cultured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo‐EM). Cryo‐EM reveals the dimensions, proximity, and overall organization of biological specimens in a near‐native state, avoiding artifacts of fixation and ...

Two successful pregnancies obtained following oocyte vitrification and embryo re-vitrification

Reproductive BioMedicine Online, 2008
Recent clinical reports not only show that cryopreserved embryos can be successfully used for human fertility treatment, but also that cryopreserved oocytes may be used successfully as an adjunct to human assisted reproductive technologies. Vitrification is known to establish a glass-like solid state during the cooling process.

Phosphate and fluoride removal options for Hanford high‐level waste sludge processing

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐phosphate and high‐fluoride sludges represent some of the most challenging waste streams within the Hanford High‐Level Waste (HLW) inventory due to solubility constraints, impacts on glass loading, and corrosion risks during vitrification.

Pandemic Im/mobilities, reproductive injustices, and assisted reproductive technology use among Taiwanese LGBTQ parents

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how mobility restrictions imposed by governments during the COVID‐19 pandemic intensified reproductive and mobility injustices. It traces shifting configurations of privilege and inequality within marginalized groups whose reproductive desires remain legally and socially unrecognized.

Capture of adeno‐associated viruses from clarified lysate by continuous flow ultracentrifugation: a comparative study of iodixanol and sucrose gradients

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Adeno‐Associated Virus vectors are widely used in gene therapy due to their safety and efficacy. Despite the interest in their therapeutical application, AAV purification remains a significant challenge. Density gradient ultracentrifugation using cesium chloride, sucrose, or iodixanol gradients are common methods for AAV ...
