Adenosine 5'triphosphate transport and accumulation during the cold preservation of rat hepatocytes in University of Wisconsin solution

Table 2 Total water content (intracellular and extracellular water space) of cold-stored hepatocytes under different conditions. Cells were cold stored (0 °C, 10 min) in UW solution containing ATP: 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10 mmol/L and without ATP. Intracellular water space was determined as described in Materials and Methods. Data are given as the mean±SD for hepatocytes prepared from three rats for each group.
