It was shown that the viability of MSCs both as a suspension and encapsulated in AMS decreased with a rise in cryoprotectant concentration and exposure time. Encapsulation into AMS significantly protected the cells from cytotoxic damage of the cryoprotectants, <em>e. g</em>. if the 5-min exposure to 9 M DMSO, EG and 1,2-PD resulted in the death of quite all the cells in the suspension, the viability of encapsulated MSCs after exposure under similar conditions made 60, 80 and 52% respectively. It was found that the studied penetrating cryoprotectants had a various cytotoxicity to MSCs, and it  decreased in the row DMSO > 1,2-PD > EG. The findings can be used to develop a multi-component vitrifying solution.</p><p> </p><p><em>Probl Cryobiol Cryomed 2016; 26(3):</em><em> </em><em>213–220</em><em></em></p>}, number={3}, journal={Problems of Cryobiology and Cryomedicine}, author={Zaikov, Vedeney S. and Tarusin, Dmitriy N. and Petrenko, Aleksandr Yu.}, year={2016}, month={Sep.}, pages={213–220} }
