Supporting Data
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are highly versatile and have been clinically used to treat various diseases, including musculoskeletal disorders, graft-versus-host disease, Crohn’s disease, and even cancer (Wu et al., 2020). The culture, expansion, and preservation processes of these cells are crucial to ensure their optimal performance. HypoGuard preserves the viability of MSCs (>95%) for up to 5 days (120 hours), and maintains cell concentration for up to 3 days (72 hours; Figure 1A). Importantly, after 120 hours of hypothermic storage, cell recovery remained optimal (Figure 1B) with minimal changes in doubling time after 24 and 120 hours of storage (Figure 1C).
Figure 1: Storage of human Mesenchymal Stem Cells in HypoGuard.(A) MSCs were harvested in suspension and stored in HypoGuard for up to 120 hours at 4°C. The graph shows the mean ± SD(n=3)of the concentration (no. of live cells/uL)and the cell viability of MSCs at each indicated time point. (B)Image of replated cells after 120 hours in storage.(C) At 24 hours and 120 hours post-storage, the cells were plated at 5000 cells/cm2 and cultured for 4 days to determine the doubling time. The graph represents the mean ± SDof three biological replicates.
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), the immune cell fraction of blood, are commonly isolated for in-vitro studies. These cells are highly sensitive to environmental changes and can lose viability if not handled correctly.Figure 2 demonstrate that HypoGuard can maintain cell viability above 70% for up to 120 hours at 4°C, with minimal reduction in the concentration of viable cells.

Protocol
- For adherent cells, detach cells from the culture surface using trypsin and transfer them to a suitable centrifuge tube. For suspension cells, aliquot cells into a centrifuge tube
- Centrifuge the cells to form a pellet.
- Discard the supernatant or spent culture medium.
- Resuspend the cell pellet in an appropriate volume of HypoGuard(recommended concentration: 1-5 x 10^6 cells/mL) and store at 2-8°C.
