Cells Killed,
Then Revived

NEW YORK, Oct. 3 (AP).-
A scientist told yesterday of
how he killed living matter,
then brought it back to life
months later.
The living cells were killed
with cold and dehydration and
later restored to life. showing
no signs of having aged in the
process.
DR.. Harold T. Meryman ex-
planned at a meeting sponsored
by the American Academy of
Sciences that the process marks
the first time man has changed
the time dimensions of his ex-
iStence.
DR.. Meryman. associated with
the Naval Medical Research In
stitute in Bethesda, Md, said
he had frozen and dreid red
blood cells from both humans
and rats and stored the cells
in powder form for as long as
a year.
Cells Show No Aging
When the cells were unfrozen
and liquef1ed, he said, they
were found to be no older than
they were when first procesSed.
DR.. Meryman said the vitality
of the reconstructed rat cells
was confirmed when they were
injected into the blood stream
of rats and survived.
Cells from such simple types
of biological life as bacteria and
viruses have been successfully
frozen and dried for several
years. But DR.. Meryman de-
clared his experiments were
the first successful rejuvena-
ton of cells from mammals.
Process Used on Bull
He also reported that semen
from a bull had been subjected
to the process. then used to in
Seminate a COW.
1.-THE expectant mother is
entering her third month of
pregnancy and we look forward
to a normal and fully hydrated
offspring" he added.
DR.. Meryman's findings were
regarded at the meeting as
having considerable signifi-
canoe. 1t was thought the
process might lead to long-term
storage of blood and of sper-
matazoa for artificial insemi-
nation without the need for
constant refrigeration.
