09/01/1989 - "In 21 of selected relaxed heart models the energy phosphate pattern as an index of viability was measured by P-31 MRS on a 4.7 Tesla NMR tomograph in 37 experimental runs with the following perfusion protocols: 1) immediate cardioplegia with cold Bretschneider or Collins solution, transportation under cooling, MRS after approximately 1 h; 2) immediate cardioplegia, transportation, reperfusion with oxygenated warm blood, MRS; 3) immediate blood perfusion with genuine fresh arterial blood from the slaughterhouse, cold plegia perfusion, transportation, MRS; 4) immediate blood perfusion with transportation MRS; 4) immediate blood perfusion with genuinefresh arterial blood, cold plegia perfusion, transportation, reperfusion with oxygenated warm blood, MRS during reperfusion; 5) An experimental pig heart was made plegic in vivo and reperfused with oxygenated warm blood during MRS as reference.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)"
01/01/1991 - "The aim of this study was to develop and test a new and simple kidney perfusion model from slaughterhouse swine using a new 4.7-tesla/40-cm diameter system, with the intention behind to provide a human-like mammalian experimental kidney perfusion model, and to avoid sensitive in vivo animal experiments on higher-developed mammalians, 35 pig kidneys obtained 10-15 min post mortem were studied to evaluate and define conditions for optimum metabolic preservation with the following perfusion protocols: (1) immediate plegia with cold Collins solution, 1-3 h cold storage, P-31 MRS; (2) immediate plegia, 1-3 h cold storage, blood reperfusion, P-31 MRS; (3) immediate blood reperfusion, plegia, 1-3 h cold storage, blood reperfusion, P-31 MRS; (4) immediate blood reperfusion, plegia, 24 h cold storage, blood reperfusion, P-31 MRS, P-31 MRS at 81 MHz with a double-tuned surface coil yielded the following results: [table: see text] Blood flow showed a weak correlation with beta-ATP/inorganic phosphate in protocols 3 and 4 of r = 0.64.
