title: [A method for the cryopreservation of thrombocytes].
abstract: By using dimethylsulfoxide (0.7 mol/l) a technique of cryoconservation of thrombocyte concentrates was elaborated, with own material-technological possibilities being taken into consideration. In comparison to fresh thrombocytes the results of parameters tested in vitro reveal a mean functional ability of 50%. The survival time of cells stored in this way in vivo may be compared with fresh cells. On this basis HLA-typed single-donor pools could be established for clinical application.
