Summary

The results indicate that by reducing cellular calcium ions prior to cooling through perfusion of 0.5 millimole calcium ions Krebs-Henseleit solution, significant benefits can be obtained both in prolonging the duration of cardiac preservation and in retaining functional integrity upon rewarming.
