For one, Hextend, a blood plasma volume expander used in conventional surgery, was developed by cryonicists at Trans Time, Inc while experimenting with hypothermia.
Can you provide more information, please?
The product you mention seems to have been developed by BioTime, a biomedical company. The only relationship between BioTime and Trans Time (a now defunct for-profit cryonics company) that I’ve been able to find on Google was that Trans Time owned some stocks of BioTime:
Unless you are a long-time cryonicist or a surgeon, you may not have heard of BioTime before. This company, recently profiled for its innovative stem cell research in Life Extension Magazine, is best known for producing the blood-volume expander Hextend, which was initially developed by Trans Time, an early cryonics company performing ultra-profound hypothermia research. Realizing the potential for Hextend’s conventional medical applications, BioTime was formed and, as they say, the rest is history.
