A procedure for the perfusion of the isolated chicken liver was developed. The preparation satisfied many of the criteria of normal physiological function, e.g. oxygen consumption and the absence in the perfusion medium of enzymes indicative of cell damage, and retained its capacity to synthesize lipids from glucose, acetate and long-chain fatty acids. Part of newly synthesized triglyceride was released into the perfusion medium as lipoprotein.
