Successful revival of 30 year cryogenic processed heart

Posted by admin on June 9, 2010 in Updates | 0 comments

Viva first acquired the cryogenic facility Kry-Con in 2008.  A pleasant surprising inclusion were some abandoned specimens.  Among them was a heart from a 85 year old that was cryo-processed 30 years previous.  After clearing legal, we proceeded to update the condition of the heart with neuro antibodies and direct-injection steroids.  A disease that has a simple fix today claimed the lives of many yesterday.  On the third electrical stimulus, the heart jumped, literally, almost off the table.

Congratulations to our bio-engineers and bio-technicians.  A great success!!
