constructs (e.g., micropatterned cells and cell pairs). The hypothesis has previously been validated in paucicellular 1D arrangements of up to four cells, but has not been extensively tested in 2D constructs. We now report observations of IIF initiation in 2D tissue consisting of bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells adherent to micropatterned circular fibronectin islands of diameter 80, 140, and 225 mm; the largest constructs contained on the order of 50 cells each. The cells were cultured for 24 h after attachment to the substrate, before use in high-speed video cryomicroscopy experiments. Video was acquired at an image acquisition rate of 2000 frames/s during freezing at a constant cooling rate of 150 C/min, in the presence of extracellular ice. The cell-specific hazard rate for the initiating IIF event in 80-, 140-, and 225-mm islands 0.059 ± 0.003, 0.021 ± 0.001, and 0.011 ± 0.002 events/s/cell, respectively. The results indicate that IIF initiation kinetics are not independent of construct size, and that the spatial distribution of IIF initiation sites is not uniform within a construct of a given size.

Human adipose tissue will be a precious source of MSCs for regenerative therapy, however problems in tissue culture remain as for foreign proteins, recombinant stimulants, and the resources for MSCs. Venous wall and the perivascular “adipose” explants (0.1~0.2 gr) obtained by surgery (93 cases) were cultured in a special media including human sera, human platelet lysate, and limulus (bradytelic species) lysate (for limited cases) in a 5% CO2, -37 C, and formed confluent colonies of MSCs in 12.4 ± 3.8 (n ¼ 29) for venous wall, and in 7.1 ± 3 days (n ¼ 19) for adipose tissue. On the other hand, frozen adipose explants in 10% Me2SO in IMDM formed the MSCs colonies overall in 14.5 ± 6.5 days (n ¼ 16). Interestingly, a human skin with adipose tissues (1015around 5 mm thickness) which had been frozen in a 15% glycerol in TC199 at -196 C for 33 years gave buds of fibroblast-mesenchymal cell in 4 days and formed confluent in 11 days. Thus, thawed adipose tissue explants, either non-frozen or frozen, mostly formed MSCs confluent colonies in two weeks. The confluent MSCs were detached by 0.1% trypsin-IMDM or PBS-D solution, and cryopreserved again by RFTIVIVSCM (repetitive freeze-thaw-culture in vivo and in vitro subculture method) for days or months. The thawed MSCs were possible to form confluent colonies of MSCs as well as for the thawed bone marrow stromal cells reported previously. Limulus lysate suppressed the appearance of MSCs either of non-frozen or frozen adipose tissues in culture as well as in the result of bone marrow stem cells. The thawed adipose tissue and vein explants formed MSCs-confluent by culture in 14~40 days. The adipose tissues cryopreserved at -196 C for 33 years also budded fibroblast-like MSCs and formed confluent by culture after thawing. These adipocyte derived MSCs could be preserved by RFTCIVIVSCM and formed passage-2 confluent colonies. S020 CRYOPRESERVATION OF SHOOT TIPS OF FRAGARIA SPP. AND VIRUS ELIMINATION THROUGH CRYOTHERAPY S. Gupta. Tissue Culture and Cryopreservation Unit (TCCU), Indian Council of Agricultural Research-National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (ICARNBPGR), New Delhi, India Genus Fragaria L. of family Rosaceae is a native to temperate zones of northern hemisphere and South America. It can occur up to 4000 m altitude. Cultivars of Fragaria x ananassa Duch., the most common cultivated strawberry, is grown around the world in suitable temperate climate.

2011. USA is the top producer of strawberries followed by European countries while many other countries are trying to increase production. Strawberries are produced in 73 countries worldwide. Strawberry is rich in vitamin C and a good source of manganese, and vitamin B, E, K and dietary minerals. It is consumed fresh as well as processed. Fragaria spp. is found growing wild in the Indian Himalayas and Nilgiri hills. Mostly, exotic cultivars are in cultivation. Conservation of cultivated and wild species is important for future strawberry improvement. Apart from ex situ conservation of Fragaria germplasm in the field, under screen, in green house, in vitro cultures, the cryopreservation of plant propagules is the only available method for long-term conservation. Virus-free germplasm should be conserved in the in vitro genebank and cryobank. In the literature, more than 30 viruses and virus-like disease have been reported in the strawberry. Cryotherapy is one of the best known methods used for virus elimination in vitro. In vitro genebank in NBPGR, India is conserving more than 80 accessions of Fragaria including exotic accessions procured from USDA-ARS-NCGR, Corvallis, Oregon, USA along with the several accessions collected from field genbanks in India. In vitro-grown shoot tips are used for cryopreservation as long term conservation strategy. The meristem, the ideal explant for virus elimination, is being used for cryotherapy. Research has been undergoing in our lab on cryopreservation. The outcome of the research work will be discussed in this paper.

Oxidative stress induced by excessive accumulation of reactive oxidative species (ROS) during cryopreservation may be another major contributing factor for cryoinjury of biological materials. In order to explore the role of oxidative stress in the cryopreservation of plant pollen, the germination capacity, ROS level, and malondialdehyde (MDA) content of pollens before and after cryopreservation from 20 common ornamental plants were comparatively studied. The results showed that germinability of cryopreserved pollen from 12 out of 20 species showed no significant difference with fresh pollen (group 1), only 1 increased, while the other 7 declined significantly (group 2). ROS in cryopreserved pollens from 75% species in group 1 remained unchanged compared to fresh pollen, 85.7% species in group 2 increased significantly, suggesting that pollen viability was negatively correlated to ROS. MDA content in pollens after cryopreservation from 66.7% species in group 1 showed no significant difference from fresh pollen, 85.7% species in group 2 rose significantly, which suggested that pollen viability and MDA level were also negatively correlated. Additionally, both ROS and MDA levels in pollens from 71.4% of species in group 2 increased significantly. In conclusion, plant pollens from most species possess a certain cryostorage tolerance, but pollens from some species are damaged severely. Pollen viability is closely related to the level of MDA and ROS. And, it shows a high correlation between ROS and MDA level as well. In addition, oxidative stress in pollens can be induced by cryostorage in liquid nitrogen, and is the main cause for the viability loses following cryopreservation.
