This will result in a decrease in the concentration of water, which has two key consequences:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Osmotic gradient forms across the cell membrane, which causes \u201ccell dehydration\u201d, and<\/li>\n<li>Ice formation and abnormal concentration of solutes in the intracellular matrix, osmotic shock, and toxicity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>DMSO benefits cryoprotection and cryoprotective agents in several ways<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Provides strong molecular stability.<\/li>\n<li>Besides, facilitates a high non-conductor constant.<\/li>\n<li>It has the basic property of salt solubility, particularly for anions. Additionally, it has a propensity to act as the acceptor atom in hydrogen bonding.<\/li>\n<li>Especially, \u00a0DMSO makes a \u00a0hydrogen bond with water which is 30% stronger than between two water molecules.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The proprietary formulation of PurMa<sup>TM<\/sup> HCM allows this media to get inside the cells instantly and lower cell death.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-59053 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/purmabiologics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Hybridoma-cryoprotective-media-with-DMSO.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"636\" height=\"388\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Special Features<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Ready-to-Use medium.<\/li>\n<li>PurMa<sup>TM<\/sup> Hybridoma Cryoprotective Media (HCM) with DMSO provides much higher cell viability after short\/long-term cryoprotection.<\/li>\n<li>PurMa<sup>TM<\/sup> HCM Prevents the formation of crystals in extracellular space.
