However, the cryoprotectant dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) used for HSC cryopreservation can be toxic to cells post\u2010thaw and to patients during infusion. The Rubinstein solution is validated to wash HSCs, but the unavailability of Dextran40 in Italy prompted a search for alternatives. This report discusses the use of Gelofusine, a 4% modified gelatin solution, as a substitute for Dextran40\u2010based solutions in washing cryopreserved stem cell products.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Study Design and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study includes: (1) validation of Gelofusine in 10 CBUs unsuitable for transplantation; (2) outcomes of the first 93 transplanted units washed with Gelofusine; (3) comparisons of recovery and viability in five paired autologous PBSC products washed with Gelofusine and Rubinstein\u2010solution; and (4) comparisons of engraftment times in patients receiving units washed with Gelofusine and Rubinstein\u2010solution.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results and Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      For 10 CBUs washed with Gelofusine, CD34\n                      <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                      and TNC viability and recovery were 96%, 87%, 71%, and 75% respectively, higher than our reference values.
