SYSTEM FOR HYPOTHERMIC TRANSPORT OF SAMPLES

摘要

A system for the hypothermic transport of biological samples, such as tissues, organs, or body fluids. The system includes a self -purging preservation apparatus to suspend a sample in preservation fluid and perfuse a tissue with preservation fluid. The self -purging preservation apparatus is placed in an insulated transport container having a cooling medium. When assembled, the system allows for transport of biological samples for extended periods of time at a stable temperature.
