Reduced ischemia-reoxygenation injury in rat intestine after luminal preservation with a tailored solution.

BACKGROUND: The intestine is extremely sensitive to ischemic preservation and reoxygenation injury. Current vascular perfusion and cold storage with University of Wisconsin (UW) solution neglect the intestinal lumen and the ongoing mucosal metabolism during hypothermia. This study was designed to t...
