SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MAINTAINING ORGAN PRESSURE
Systems and methods herein generally relate to prolonging viability of bodily tissue, especially an organ, by adjusting pressure as needed to maintain a constant pressure within the organ even during external pressure fluctuations due, for example, to transportation of the organ in an airplane. The systems and methods herein can include an electronic pump that pumps gas into an organ and a mechanical pressure regulator to release gas based on organ pressure.

Systems and methods for measuring oxygen concentration for lung preservation
A system and method for maintaining an oxygen concentration of a biological sample. The oxygen concentration can be maintained by measuring the oxygen concentration within the biological sample and adjusting a rate of an oxygen supplier in response to this measurement. For example, when the oxygen concentration is below a threshold, oxygen can be delivered to the biological sample at a higher rate.

CELL-FREE DNA CONCENTRATION IN HYPOTHERMIC MACHINE PERFUSATE AS A RAPID MARKER FOR KIDNEY GRAFT QUALITY
A system for the measurement of cell-free DNA that comes off of a kidney pump (perfusate) prior to transplantation to evaluate the viability of the organ (quantification of donor injury) and the risk for primary graft dysfunction after transplantation. This use of cfDNA does not require sequencing just quantification. A device that would connect to a kidney pump and directly measure the cfDNA and analyze it.

Lung perfusion solution, and use thereof for the ex-vivo preservation of a mammalian lung
A lung perfusion solution comprises a base solution comprising a physiological mixture of electrolytes and buffers, 3.5-5.5% (w/v) a first macromolecule having a molecular weight of 40-100 KDa, and an amount of a second, high molecular weight, macromolecule sufficient to adjust the relative viscosity of the solution to 2.0-3.0.
