Twenty-three human cadavers kidneys were studied during hypothermic pulsatile perfusion prior to transplantation. The accumulation of laevo-lactate and lactate dehydrogenase, alterations in pH and perfusion flow rate were measured and compared with organ function following transplantation. No parameter measured was found to be an accurate index of potential function.
