Figure 3From: Effect of different freezing rates during cryopreservation of rat mesenchymal stem cells using combinations of hydroxyethyl starch and dimethylsulfoxideCryopreservation of MSCs using HES/DMSO combinations. Viability of MSCs after cryopreservation with different concentrations of DMSO and HES 450, measured by 3 days after thawing in normal media (A) and after 14 days of osteogenic differentiation (B).
