Abstract

Solid organ transplantation was one of the greatest medical advances of the 20(th) century. Current preservation technology falls short of maintaining organs ex vivo in perpetuity. This review examines the biochemical basis of organ degradation in response to ischaemia, preservation solution composition and potential future organ preservation technology.
