Abstract

As part of the ongoing effort to study the mechanical behavior of biological materials in cryopreservation processes, the current study focuses on thermal expansion during vitrification (vitreous in Latin means glassy). A new device is utilized in this study, which has been described in detail in the companion paper (Part I). The current study (Part II) focuses on measurements of vitrified blood vessels permeated with the cryoprotectants VS55, DP6, and DMSO. Data analysis in this study includes polynomial approximation of experimental results in the lower part of the cryogenic temperature range, where the material behaves as solid over a practical time scale. The study further includes a unified thermal expansion analysis throughout the entire cryogenic temperature range by compiling the current results with previously reported data. Finally, analysis of the glass transition temperature, based on thermal strain data is presented.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 39. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 April 2022.
All research outputs
#1,034,314
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Cryobiology
#11
of 1,305 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,663
of 91,760 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cryobiology
#1
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,305 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 91,760 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
