Created: May 03, 2021 06:02 PM Researchers at the University of Minnesota are working to create the world s first human organ storage bank as part of a new national effort. Currently, human organs only have a matter of hours after donation to reach a recipient, so storing them is not possible. But the Minnesota scientists are developing new methods of organ preservation that could give organs a shelf life of months or even years. We want to stop biologic time, explained Dr. Erik Finger, a transplant surgeon and associate professor in the university s department of surgery. Right now, there s a problem: if an organ is suitable for a patient in California but comes from Maine, it may not get there in time. With heart and lung, for example, you only have four to six hours. Our process would allow you to store organs in a liquid nitrogen freezer for years, theoretically. ....

U of M hopes to create a human organ bank for transplants, with cryogenic research The University of Minnesota is part of a major nationwide research effort aimed at stopping time during the transplant process. Author: Kent Erdahl Updated: 10:32 PM CDT April 28, 2021 MINNEAPOLIS It might sound a bit like science fiction, but a multi-million dollar investment in cryogenic organ and tissue preservation at the University of Minnesota could help countless people in need of a transplant buy a precious resource: time. Ask the CEO of LifeSource, which has facilitated organ and tissue transplants in Minnesota for more than 30 years, and she ll tell you that every single day is a battle with the clock. ....
University of Minnesota to host new Organ and Tissue Preservation Center The University of Minnesota is one of two institutions in the United States to host a new center established by the Biostasis Research Institute (BRI) aimed at creating human organ banks through the cryogenic storage of organs donated for transplantation. BRI is launching and funding the Organ and Tissue Preservation Center at the U of M, which will focus on technologies to safely and rapidly rewarm cryopreserved organs and other living systems. This center will be housed within the U of M Institute for Engineering in Medicine (IEM) and will be led by IEM Director John Bischof and Medical School Department of Surgery faculty member Erik Finger. ....
