Transportation of fresh bone marrow stromal cells. (a) to (d) Syringes containing 100 million bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were transported from Germany to France where they were mixed with biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) biomaterial in sterile syringes. (e) No difference in viability of transported cells according to the percentage of human serum albumin (HSA) in the transportation media was found upon arrival in France. (f) Methylene blue staining shows cells attached to the BCP particles after 1 hour.
