  • SAMPLE IMAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AN IMAGE OF CELLS OR TISSUES LOCATED IN A CULTURING SPACE TO DATA PRCESSING MEANS
    Publication number: 20130215252
    Abstract: A microscope unit positioned in a culturing space for imaging cells or tissues also located therein. The microscope unit has a frame, an object holder provided on the frame and allowing the cells or tissues to be held substantially immobile during a culturing period, an imaging device arranged on the frame for the optical imaging of the cells or tissues held on the object holder and an image capturing device for capturing an image projected by the imaging device. A connection leading out of the culturing space provides electrical power to the microscope unit and is adapted to be connected to a control unit and, in turn, a processor, both located outside of the culturing space. The invention also relates to a method for monitoring cells or tissues located in the culturing space and transmitting the image thereof.

  • Improving the post-thaw survival of mammalian blastocyt or sperm by applying hydrostatic pressure prior to cryopreservation
    Patent number: 7879539
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving post-thaw survival of cryopreserved biological material comprising applying hydrostatic pressure to said biological material; keeping the said biological material at the hydrostatic pressure for a predetermined time period; releasing the hydrostatic pressure; and freezing the said biological material using any protocol applicable thereto. The invention also relates to the use of a pressurizing device for the pretreatment of a biological material that is to be cryopreserved, as well as to a pressurizing device for the pretreatment of a biological material that is to be cryopreserved, said device comprising a pressure chamber for receiving biological material, means to produce said pressure, and means to maintain said pressure in said chamber.
