Freezing of cell sheets using a 3D freezer produces high cell viability after thawing
In cell therapy, transplanting an appropriate number of cells to the target site is crucial. One way to achieve this is to transplant cell sheets. Transplantation of cell sheets has already been utilized for various diseases in clinical practice. However, reducing the cost of cell sheet utilization...
