patients will likely have their blood replaced with an organ preservation solution for shipment to the U.S.A. at 0 degC.
[huh]
Why not use a proper solution and ship on dry ice?

Vitrification can't be done over here

I'm curious to know what equipment and protocol you use for glycerol perfusion over there. I didn't know you still had that capability.
More data are needed.

Once again I'll just say that if it turns out that patients are unperfusable with vitrification solution after 48 hours of 0 degC blood substitution and storage, then the question is moot and whatever kind glycerol cryoprotection can be done will be better than nothing.
Caliban and torsen, I need to know what your glycerol perfusion and cooling capabilities are. I need to know

I'm not sure what you mean by "irreversible." The best cryonics methods today cause damage that is irreversible with present technology. Hypothermia at 0 degC under ideal conditions is reversible for up three hours with present technology, but not longer. What's important to know is whether long storage times at 0 degC result in damage that is substantially greater than cryopreservation under ideal conditions, or cryopreservation under not-so-ideal conditions, like field perfusion and cooling with glycerol.
