Effects of Institut Georges Lopez-1 and Celsior preservation solutions on liver graft injury

Figure 1 Concentration-response curve for acetylcholine in rat hepatic arterial rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine: maximal effect (Emax) and EC₅₀ values. Control (n = 12): hepatic artery rings were reoxygenated in the organ bath without cold storage. IGL-1 (n = 11): hepatic artery rings were reoxygenated in the organ bath after cold preservation in IGL-1 solution. Celsior (n = 11): hepatic artery rings were reoxygenated in the organ bath after cold preservation in Celsior solution. Values are means ± SD. ^aP < 0.05 vs Control. IGL-1: Institut Georges Lopez-1.
