X-Message-Number: 8376 From: (Joseph J. Strout) Newsgroups: sci.cryonics Subject: temp range for vitreous ice? Date: Mon, 14 Jul 1997 14:48:07 -0700 Message-ID: <> Suppose you wanted to freeze a patient solid, but minimize the ice crystal damage -- and you didn't need long-term storage. Could you improve the ratio of vitreous to crystalline ice by maintaining a temperature just below the freezing point of your solutions? I'll appreciate any tips -- references would be great, but off-the-cuff knowledge is accepted with hearty thanks as well! ,------------------------------------------------------------------. | Joseph J.
