[Histonet] AedestaT-cell/tissue preservation (ACTP) media for muscle bx's

[Sharon Allen]

I had read the article on:
Nonfrozen Transport Medium Preserves and
Restores Skeletal Muscle Enzymatic Activity
and Morphology from the The Journal of Histotechnology / Vol. 32, No. 2 / June 2009
posted lately on the Histonet.  I was wondering if anyone had used or heard of any further testing on the ACTP media for restoring & preserving frozen muscle bx's.
I have a whole year of muscle bx's from the mid 90's with severe freezing artifact, unfortunately someone shut our -70°C freezer off instead of the alarm, on a Friday afternoon & was not discovered until Mon. morning.
If anyone has any information I would appreciate it. It would be great to be able to restore these muscles when needed.
Thank you,
