| Research Abstract |
(1) Development of isolation procedure of pancreatic islets for large animals. We developed 2-step automated isolation procedure of pancreatic islets for miniature swine and dogs.
This procedure is possible to use human pancreatic islets for human islets transplantation.
(2) Development of automated cry a preservation procedure for pancreatic islets. We developed cry a preservation procedure employing a freezer bag for pancreatic islets using a newly developed cry a protectant.
