Viability of frozen allografts. 1979

T L Wachtel, and J Ninnemann, and J C Fisher, and H A Frank, and W Inancsi

The use of meshed skin grafts allows an evaluation of the biologic properties of stored tissues such as skin. Frozen allograft may serve as an excellent biologic membrane, but it is not a satisfactory product for longer term allografting (intermediate allografting). The method of thawing (microwave oven versus water bath) appeared to have little effect on the ultimate viability and outcome of the frozen allograft.
