Frusemide was added to the perfusate used to flush kidneys prior to transplantation. The 133Xe wash-out technique was used to measure renal blood flows before and after transplantation and the clearance curves were analysed into cortical and medullary components. It is concluded that the addition of frusemide to the perfusate contributes significantly to the restoration of a satisfactory blood flow to a transplanted kidney.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
