Summary
The cryopreservation of human liver slices is a promising way to enhance the ability to test the metabolism of drug candidates. The study demonstrates the use of a novel technique for the cryopreservation of both rat and human liver slices. The technique was found to work over a wide range of DMSO concentrations (4.5 to 22% was tested) with an optimal concentration between 10 and 15%.
