What's the difference between vitrifaction and vitrification?
Vitrifaction
Definition:
(n.) The act, art, or process of vitrifying; also, the state of being vitrified.
Example Sentences:
Vitrification
Definition:
(n.) Same as Vitrifaction.
Example Sentences:
(1) Included in the thermal destruction category are treatment technologies such as rotary kiln incineration, fluidized bed incineration, infrared thermal treatment, wet air oxidation, pyrolytic incineration, and vitrification.
(2) The purpose of the present survey is to show that a general understanding of the physical behavior and biological effects of vitrification solutions, as well as an understanding of the conditions under which vitrification solutions are required, is gradually emerging.
(3) The embryos were transferred to an equilibration medium [10% 1,2-propanediol and 20% glycerol in modified PBS (mPBS)] for 10 minutes and frozen in a vitrification medium (25% glycerol and 25% 1,2-prapanediol in mPBS) by direct lowering into liquid nitrogen.
(4) The key technique, which came into use in 2001, is vitrification.
(5) The results show that the optimum time for exposure of the embryos to the EFS solution before rapid cooling varies with the ambient temperature, i.e., 0.5 min at 25 degrees C, 0.5-5 min at 20 degrees C, 2-5 min at 10 degrees C, and 2-10 min at 5 degrees C. If they are exposed for an optimum period, almost all mouse morulae can survive vitrification (94-100%).
(6) Devitrification (ice formation during warming) is one of the primary obstacles to successful organ vitrification (solidification without ice formation).
(7) After a minimum, an increase of survival is observed at the fastest cooling rates, which would correspond to complete vitrification.
(8) A system has been developed that ensures that a liquid or partially liquid specimen is maintained in its original state while it is being prepared before vitrification and, once prepared, is vitrified with little alteration of its microstructure.
(9) These results suggest that the simple vitrification solution described in this study is effective for the cryopreservation of mouse blastocysts.
(10) Factors that influence the survival of embryos include the concentration and composition of the vitrification solution, the procedure used to equilibrate embryos in this solution, the cooling and warming conditions, and the procedure used to dilute embryos from the vitrification solution.
(11) Preimplantation stage mouse embryos have been used to examine the response of a simple multicellular system to cryopreservation by the complete vitrification of the suspension.
(12) They were cryopreserved by the vitrification method.
(13) Embryos were exposed to intracellular cryoprotecting medium (glycerol 10%, 1-2 propanediol 20% in PBS) for 10 min and then transferred to extracellular vitrification medium (25% glycerol, 25% 1-2 propanediol in PBS).
(14) Vitrification solutions are aqueous cryoprotectant solutions which do not freeze when cooled at moderate rates to very low temperatures.
(15) The possibility of cryopreservation of islets of Langerhans by vitrification using a mixture of cryoprotectants was investigated and the results were compared with a more conventional freezing method using Me2SO as cryoprotectant.
(16) In all cases there was vaporization of the pathological dentition and vitrification of the superficial dentin layer.
(17) Of the 200 DNA-injected 8-cell embryos cryopreserved by vitrification in microdrops, 194 (97%) were recovered and 188 (94%) embryos were intact one hour after thawing.
(18) Vitrification of such specimens is assessed by cryo-X-ray diffraction.
(19) Exposure of oocytes to the cryoprotectant media, but without the vitrification, resulted in 30.8% developing to blastocysts.
(20) Vitrification offers a way to cryopreserve human liver slices for the study of xenobiotic metabolism in humans.
