Structure of the studied tissues after low temperature, ionizing and combined exposures was investigated by optical and electron microscopies. The application of this method to devitalize the pericardium and aortic valve is shown to result in the expressed destructive changes of cell elements, but the spatial location and structural integrity of connective tissue fibrous components are preserved. <em></em></p><p><em><br /></em></p><p><em>Probl Cryobiol Cryomed 2015; 25(3):246-254. </em></p> ER -
