Lab Setup

Islet lab set-up

During organ transport there is time to setup the islet lab before islet isolation. This optimizes the time most efficiently to allow processing of the organ directly upon arrival.

Islet lab setup SOPs: Setting up the islet lab, Assembling the digestion system, Receiving a pancreas at the lab

Preparing the lab for the islet isolation procedure prior to pancreas arrival saves time and stress during actual processing. The video below displays the hoods and accompanying equipment for the major steps of islet isolation processing.
