A REVIEW ON CRYONICS AND CRYOPROTECTANTS
Muskan Kushwah* and Roshani Verma
ABSTRACT Cryobiology will have a significant impotence in near future as a number of transplantations of vital organs of humans are becoming more demanding in the modern age. Cryonics is nothing but a science based on extension of the current science and technology. Low temperatures slow biological time, effectively stopping time at liquid nitrogen temperature. Cryoprotectants greatly reduce dam-age caused by tissue cryopreservation, and effective vitrification‟s can prevent ice forma-ton completely. Dying is a process that begins, not ends, when heartbeat and blood circulation stop. When legal death is declared based on car-sinopulmonary arrest, cryonics procedures aim to minimize further injury by artificially restoring blood circulation and rapidly reducing temperature. Keywords: Cryonics, Cryoprotectants, Dimethyl sulfoxide. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
