Abstract

The cryoprotective effect of sucrose has been investigated using 3 different vascular smooth muscle preparations, namely canine saphenous veins and arteries and porcine circumflex coronary arteries following storage in liquid nitrogen (at -196 degrees C). Contractile responses to noradrenaline, 5-HT, prostaglandin F2 alpha and KCl and relaxant responses to substance P and 5-HT were determined on fresh tissues and after cryostorage in fetal calf serum (FCS) containing either 1.8 M dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), or 0.1 M sucrose or both agents combined. The data demonstrate that the addition of sucrose to the DMSO-containing cryomedium promotes the preservation of both contractile and relaxant activity of cryostored blood vessels, though sucrose alone did not confer any noticeable protection.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 22 August 2019.
All research outputs
#7,453,126
of 22,785,242 outputs
Outputs from Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology
#347
of 1,723 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#5,539
of 19,138 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology
#1
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,785,242 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,723 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 19,138 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 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
