LungProtect®
LungProtect®
LungProtect® is an advanced hypothermic preservation solution designed for optimal intracellular-like protection, ensuring safe flushing, storage, and transport of explanted lungs with minimized cellular injury and maintained lung viability.
LungProtect® is a sterile, non-toxic, and non-pyrogenic preservation solution with low potassium concentration. It is designed for hypothermic flushing, storage, and transport of explanted lungs. With a physiological pH of 7.4 and osmolality of ~295 mOsm/kg, it helps maintain lung viability and minimize ischemic damage during preservation.
