Patent

CA 2051354

A method is provided for protection of biological materials from the stresses of air-drying and also from destructive reactions, such as oxidation and free-radical attack, which degrade the materials during long-term storage. The method involves drying the materials, which may contain potentially destructive agents such as free-radical generators or reducing sugars, in the presence of a vitrifying substance, and under conditions which allow the protective substance to become vitrified.

L'invention porte sur une méthode pour protéger les matières biologiques contre les contraintes du séchage à l'air et contre les réactions destructrices, comme l'oxydation et l'attaque par les radicaux libres, qui dégradent ces matières lors de l'entreposage à long terme. La méthode consiste à sécher les matières, qui peuvent contenir des agents potentiellement destructeurs, comme les générateurs de radicaux libres ou les sucres réducteurs, en présence d'une substance vitrifiante, et dans des conditions qui permettent la vitrification de la substance protectrice.
