The temperature of platelet intracellular ice crystal formation (IIF) is one of the most important physical parameters to instruct platelet cryopreservation. In this study, the range of temperatures for platelet IIF was measured by means of biological and physical methods. All platelet samples were graded cooling, and two samples of per 5 degrees C decrease were thawed by 2 different ways: 37 degrees C directly (T 37 degrees C) and 37 degrees C after keeping in liquid nitrogen (LN) for 2 hours. The phosphatidylserine (PS) positive rate, plasma lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) concentration and platelet aggregate rate were measured in all samples. The heat release graphs of platelets cryopreserved with or without 5% DMSO were also measured by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results showed that the PS positive rates and aggregate rates in platelets and plasma LDH concentrations gradually increased in T 37 degrees C group and decreased in LN group until the arrival of -35 degrees C, and then there were no further changes of the 3 parameters. A small second heat release peak was detected at about -35 degrees C in the platelet samples cryopreserved without DMSO. It is concluded that the temperature of intracellular ice crystal formation in platelet is from -30 to -40 degrees C (-35 degrees ).
A mathematic model of estimation of time of death (TD) in newborns is proposed. This computer method of TD timing by changes of body temperature differs from earlier developed mathematical models by possibility to consider individual anthropometric and thermophysical characteristics of the body. It is more precise, shorter and easy to perform.
