The present study aimed to test different cryoprotectants on cryopreservation of pig ovarian tissue. Pig ovaries (n=3) were collected at a local slaughterhouse. From each ovary, ten cortex samples taken. One was immediately fixed (control) and another placed in short-term tissue incubation (STTI control). other 8 cryopreserved, pairs, using 4 cryoprotectants: dimethyl sulphoxide (Me2SO - 1.5M), ethylene glycol (EG propanediol (PROH 1.5M) glycerol (GLY 10%), all with 0.4% sucrose. Samples...

Immobilization, used in clinical practice to treat traumatologic problems, causes changes muscle, but it is not known whether also occur nerves. We investigated the effects of immobilization on excitability and compound action potential (CAP) ultrastructure rat sciatic nerve. Fourteen days after right leg adult male Wistar rats (n=34), animals were killed nerve was dissected mounted a moist chamber. Nerves stimulated at baseline frequency 0.2 Hz tested for 2 min 20, 50, 100 Hz....
