Proteomic Analysis of Kidney Preservation Solutions Prior to Renal Transplantation. [PDF]
One of the main issues in kidney transplantation is the optimal functional preservation of the organ until its transplantation into the appropriate recipient. Despite intensive efforts, the functional preservation period remains limited to hours.

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
