X-Message-Number: 3885 Newsgroups: sci.cryonics From: (Michael Clive Price) Subject: glycerol questions References: <> Date: Wed, 22 Feb 1995 15:48:27 +0000 Message-ID: <> I am trying to see how Suda's experiments with cryopreservation of cat brains [*] relates to cryopreservation as performed today (on humans). Suda states that he perfused his brains (the cats', not his, that is) with 15% glycerol by volume. How does this translate into terms of molarity? If someone knows and can explain the answers that would be great. Ta.
