abstract = {Ultrasonic rewarming is a new method for im- proving cryopreservation recovery. We developed an ultrasonic rewarming device and control algorithm for the rapid and repeat- able rewarming of cryopreserved biological media in cryovials. We characterised the device’s acoustic output with hydrophone measurements and rewarming rates with thermocouple measure- ments. Mean rewarming rates of 120◦C/min were achieved with cryopreserved alginate beads and cryoprotectant solution. The ultrasound exposures implemented free-field pressure amplitudes in the 3MPa range, corresponding to 100W electrical absorbed power. The exposure duration timing was accurate to ∼0.5s. The device will provide a platform for ultrasonic rewarming cell viability studies.},
