Percoll UWS Pancreatic Islet Purification (20240731) now has a remastered poster image , see below.
Lyon 1991 Percoll Poster | 20240731 • 20240808
20240808 – remastered poster : Following the first publication here last month (20240731) of the original 1991 MacDraw poster opened (converted) in LibreOffice Vanilla (1), I learned how to do some editing in the LibreOffice app to further restore poster layout details such as line spacing, and font style. An archive photo of another poster presentation in Pittsburgh in 1992 (that will be posted here soon) guided this restoration.
Current workflow : 1) opening the MacDraw II file in LibreOffice Vanilla 2) editing in in LibreOffice Vanilla , saving as LibreOffice Vanilla file (OpenDocument Drawing – extension odg). 3) opening the photo tiff image in the Mac’s Preview app, and copying the displayed image to the clipboard 4) pasting the clipboard image in the LibreOffice doc , and dragging to adjust size and location 5) exporting the file as PDF (image resolution 300 DPI ; PDF/A-1b ; PDF/UA). 6) Converting the PDF in the Preview app to TIFF 144 pixels/inch. 7) Adding caption , metadata etc with JPEG conversion in PhotoMill.
The 20240731 post now has this updated 20240808 – poster image.

Biodiversity at the Norman Reef, Great Barrier Reef, Australia, Sep. 20, 1999. With Maori Wrasse, Yellow Tail Snapper, Blue-spot Lagoon Ray, Paddletail fish, corals…
September 1989 at a symposium of two international societies in Minneapolis, USA (1) , I presented this first poster on the ‘ invention ‘ of using the UW solution ( the University of Wisconsin organ preservation solution) during pancreatic islet isolation, with the exciting discovery of near-complete purification of islets of Langerhans in the laboratory for transplantation in diabetic patients.
Here the remastered 20240804 edition of that Minneapolis 1989 poster presentation.
The UWS data had been added ad hoc in the poster – that is , it wasn’t part of the accepted abstract. The first proceedings paper on our UWS work was also submitted at this meeting , and was published April ’90 (3).
A previous edition of the remastered poster was published here two years ago (2) but that edition had a different photo print (higher magnification, and without the bar indicator) of the purified islet preparation inserted, not the original image. This has been corrected now. In addition the original line spacing is now restored.
