Experiments in Blood
May Prove Boon
To War Wounded
Quick Temperature
Drop Fails to Harm
Red CorpuseIes
By the Associa ted Presa.

By the Associate Press.
PASADENA, Calf. Nov. 4.-Ex-
periments by a physicist and his
wife in preserving human blood over
long periods for transfusions may
prove a boon to war wounded.
DR.. Alexander Goetz of the Cali
fornia Institute of Technology, and
his wife, Sylvia, said today they had
succeeded in rapidly lowering and
then raising the temperature of
blood without apparent injury to
red corpuscles.
Cooling blood by dipping it into
liquid air completely destroys these
corpuscles.
The scientists employed the same
technique they used in their cyro-
genie laboratory 18 months ago to
keep yeast cells. a primitive form of
life, at 300 degrees below zero for
as long as 100 hours and then re-
store them to normal functions.
Half a Drop Used.
1--WE lowered the blood cells, which
are little different from yeast cells"
said DR.. Goetz, from room tempera-
ture to 3l0 degrees below zero in
one e-hundredth of a second.
Later the blood used, about half a
drop, was warmed at approximately
the same rate.
Most of the red corpuscles were
preserved. Samples of normal blood
and the blood kept frozen for a
period were microscopically indis-
tinguishable.
"The amount used in the test was
too small to determine whether it
was clinically unchanged. We are
installing equipment to freeze blood
In quantities of a pint or more.
Then If this blood preserved by rapid
cooling proves effective in trans
fusions we will know the expert
ments are successful.
Eve are now certain if blood can
be carried past the freezing point
without change 1t can be preserved
Indefinitely"
Laboratory experts at the Los An
geles County General Hospital say
five days is as long as blood may be
safely preserved by present methods.
Could Keep Ample Stores.
There are several classes of human
blood, some of which are difficult to
obtain for transfusions on short
notice. If the experiments under
taken by DR.. and Mrs. Goetz for the
American Philosophical Society are
successful, not only could the rare
types of blood be kept in reserve but
large quantities of all classes could
be preserved for major disasters and
wartimes.
DR.. Goetz reiterated they do not
hope to be able to freeze human
beings and restore them to life days,
months or years later.
He does, however. think it possible
they may be able to preserve sper-
matozoa and thus make it possible
for fine horses like War Admiral to
sire colts years after they are dead
