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.

I started an archive at Archive.org November 11, 2010 with this slideshow (pdf) of my January 1999 oral presentation in Igls (Innsbruck), Austria, at the 18th Workshop of the AIDSPIT (Artificial Insulin Delivery Systems, Pancreas and Islet Transplantation) Study Group. (Now known as AIDPIT).
The presented results of this innovative islet purification method — developed over nearly 10 years (from 1989) in our Leiden islet laboratory (LUMC) — were the outcome of work I had done spring 1998 with the human islet transplantation group of Camillo Ricordi at the Diabetes Research Institute in Miami , Florida, USA.
