Successful Isolation of Viable Adipose-Derived Stem Cells from Human Adipose Tissue Subject to Long-Term Cryopreservation: Positive Implications for Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapeutics in Patients of Advanced Age

Figure 2

Initial ASC viability relative to cryopreservation duration. (a) A trend toward decreasing ASC viability with increasing ASC cryopreservation duration was observed. (b) ASC viability was compared relative to cryopreservation duration in 3 cohort groups: <1 year (), 1-2 years (), and >2 years (). No significant differences were observed between the three groups.
