Very encouraging at
http://www.network54.com/Forum/291677/message/1233860845/ to mention good reasons for chemo fixation.
:quote:
1. Much less technique sensitive.
2. Less time pressure.
3. Less equipment needed in the field.
4. Would equally help accident and stroke victims.
5. Would help in cases where delays happened.
6. Would help in underfunded situations. Gives people time to gather funds. Even years.

There are some more reasons:
7. Suspension in places where strong supervision is needed
8. Exchange of know-how between cryo-providers and chemo-providers
Strong supervision requires authorities to check from time to time if a patient's brain is alright under suspension. So they can look inside a container where brains are under suspension to check whether the tissue has gotten much putrid or not.
Chemo-providers can establish know-how to assess a cryoprotective perfusion under urgent conditions where a blood washout cannot be established at all. Possible chemo-providers include funeral directors who provide embalming. Embalming as usual includes the whole body. This must change, so that a trained embalmer preserves the head separately. The embalmer should establish ligation of blood vessels in cervical areas with a neckband. An electric pump will establish a closed circulation inside the skull. Decay of neurons can be tackled by slow injection of a universal solution which contains embalming fluid and a vasodilator against muscular spasms. If desired, a cryoprotectant can be added. Usage of an electric pump keeps the blood in motion.
By the way, I'm still looking for volunteers who can help me to get in touch with KrioRus for negotiations regarding the storage of my portable DNA Archive which is actually located in Germany. Eventually, there can be provisions for a Russian life insurance with low funding under the term that it will be for a cheap chemo suspension (if it's becoming available). You can contact me by email to robomoon

Of cause, some parts of neurons are getting destroyed by this approach. But there will be remains of dendritic trees, axon terminals, and the like, which morphology can be analyzed. Even when reversal of these damages for reanimation as a living human cannot be accomplished, I still have the intention that special characteristics of my DNA and neuronal morphology will be integrated into an autonomous robot. There are also digital data (bemes) which will enhance my identity when development of AI is progressing.
