Viability of Fresh vs Cultured Pig Islets for Transplants • Cell Transplant Society 1999 Montreux • 20241204


Oral presentation Michel van der Burg, Cell Transplant Society congress 1999 in Montreux, Switzerland

A novel iodixanol density gradient for purification of pancreatic islets was developed in the difficult pig model of islet isolation. Viability of freshly isolated islets is not guaranteed.
After short-term storage of the islets in culture, pig islets restored normal blood sugar levels after xeno transplantation in diabetic mice.
