Russian scientists in the process of developing technology to indefinitely preserve tissue and organs in the human body, revitalized a frog's heart previously preserved in a frozen state , the news agency reported. Sputnik knew this from Professor Anatoly Kovtun, head of the Potential Research Fund (FPI) working group.
Scientists successfully recovered a frog's heart after 45 days of storage at -196 degrees Celsius.
"FPI is currently conducting scientific research to create indefinite preservation technologies in a live state for isolation tissues and organs in the human body. Our pride is the first time. In the world, FPI experts successfully restored a frog's heart after 45 days of storage at -196 degrees Celsius, " Kovtun said.
In addition, scientists have succeeded in completely recovering the life function of the rat heart after 24 hours of storage in a cooling state of 4 degrees C.
"The heart transplant for a heart-receiving mouse has been successfully performed after preservation in a hypothermia state. With the current technology, the heart's storage time does not last more than 6 hours" - Research Fund Potential emphasis.
