Description
The goal of cellular processing facilities is to provide products of the highest quality through proper processes and procedures. The objective of this audioconference is to describe and demonstrate thorough visual tools, current practices of cellular cryopreservation, thaw, storage and infusion. The speakers will address the biologic mechanism associated with the addition and removal of cryoprotectant solutions as well as techniques to ensure optimum cellular product cryopreservation, storage, thaw and infusion.
- Describe processes for thawing and infusion of cellular products including methods to optimize cellular recovery, testing requirements, and approaches to safe infusion.
- Discuss the practice and science of cellular cryopreservation including types of cryopreservative solutions, addition of cryoprotectants, freezing methodologies and storage systems.
- Provide a visual demonstration of cryopreservation, thaw and infusion techniques for cellular therapy products.
