But now, scientists have come up with a device that allows organs to be cooled to -4 \u00b0C (25 \u00b0F) without forming any ice. They\u2019ve tested it with pig organs and shown that kidneys, at least, can be preserved in the device for days then successfully transplanted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Read our story about their breakthrough, and why it raises hopes for longer-term storage of donated human organs.<\/p>\n
