An Experimental Study of the Mechanical Response of Frozen Biological Tissues at Cryogenic Temperatures. Cryobiology 33
An experimental study of the mechanical response of frozen soft biological tissues to applied compressive stresses is presented. This study is related to the mechanical stresses that develop due to the contraction of frozen tissues in cryopreservation as well as in cryosurgical procedures. The main...
