HTK-N: Modified Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate Solution—A Promising New Tool in Solid Organ Preservation [PDF]
To ameliorate ischemia-induced graft injury, optimal organ preservation remains a critical hallmark event in solid organ transplantation. Although numerous preservation solutions are in use, they still have functional limitations.

Original and generic preservation solutions in organ transplantation. A new paradigm? [PDF]
Solid organ transplantation is a very complex process, in which the storage of the graft in a preservation solution is mandatory in order to extend ischemic times and contain further damage.

Evaluation of the presence of microorganisms in solid-organ preservation solution
OBJECTIVE: To assess the presence of microorganism contamination in the preservation solution for transplant organs (kidney/pancreas). Method: Between August 2007 and March 2008, 136 samples of preservation solution were studied prior to graft ...

Tips for optimizing organ preservation solutions
Organ injury during ischemia is one of the clinical problems of today's transplantation. It occurs during warm ischemia time (WIT) when the blood flow is cut off and during cold ischemia when a graft is chilled in situ until the circulation is restored to the recipient organism.

Hyperbranched polyglycerol as a colloid in cold organ preservation solutions.
Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is a common colloid in organ preservation solutions, such as in University of Wisconsin (UW) solution, for preventing graft interstitial edema and cell swelling during cold preservation of donor organs.

Current Trends in Organ Preservation Solutions for Pancreas Transplantation: A Single-Center Retrospective Study [PDF]
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT Due to the high vulnerability of the pancreas to ischemia-reperfusion injury, choices regarding preservation solution markedly affect pancreas transplant success. A retrospective single-center analysis of 380 pancreas transplants (2000–

Organ preservation using a photosynthetic solution [PDF]
Abstract Background Organs harvested from a body lapsing into circulatory deficit are exposed to low O2/high CO2, and reach a critical point where original functionality after transplantation is unlikely. The present study evaluates the effect of respiratory assistance using Chlorella photosynthesis on preservation of

A Novel Preservation Solution Containing Quercetin and Sucrose for Porcine Kidney Transplantation
Background. In organ transplantation, the University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has been the gold standard for organ preservation. Quercetin (Que) has numerous antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and sucrose (Suc) may be effective for cold ...
