LDH Release into Perfusates of Preserved Kidneys

Abstract: The measurement of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release into perfusates after hypothermic storage was found to be a reliable index of ischemic injury of rabbit kidneys. Kidneys were exposed to warm and cold ischemia for varying periods. Each kidney was perfused before and after storage at simple hypothermia with 25 ml of a modified Collins solution. The venous effuent was collected in 5 ml fractions. Total LDH activity was measured in the first fraction after storage and used as a measure of ischemic tissue dam… Show more

“…In order to evaluate the applicability of experimental kidney storage procedures, it is necessary to test the functional capacity of the' preserved organs. Tests ranging from assessment of physiological functions of the entire organ during normothermic perfusion (Bartlett, Nkposong & Richards, 1970;Fuller & Pegg, 1976) to biochemical estimations of subcellular events reflecting ischaemia (Buhl, 1976;Dahlager & Bilde, 1976;Johnson, Anderson, Taylor & Swinney, 1973; Kemp, Jacobsen & Amtrup, 1976) have been used for this purpose. However, these tests can only in part answer the question of viability.…”
