| pubmed-article:9927543 | pubmed:abstractText | It is generally accepted that 0 to 4 degreesC is a suitable temperature for organ preservation. The reason for this is based on the premise that at temperatures below 0 degreesC, intracellular ice is likely to form, with subsequent damage to cellular structures. However, it cannot be assumed that subzero temperatures will freeze the cell. In this study, we attempted to confirm the specific freezing point of rat liver and to preserve it at a temperature just above that point. | lld:pubmed |
