Abstract
The transmissibility rate of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, in organ and tissue donation is not known. Considering all issues related to the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission and the risk of tissue shortages due to donor exclusion, this in vitro study evaluated the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in bone tissue models after bone processing for tissue bank. Bone processing has activity against SARS-CoV-2 and not RNA was detected in the end of the process. The use of bone tissue can be considered in case of shortage.
期刊介绍:
Cell and Tissue Banking provides a forum for disseminating information to scientists and clinicians involved in the banking and transplantation of cells and tissues. Cell and Tissue Banking is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original papers in the following areas:
basic research concerning general aspects of tissue banking such as quality assurance and control of banked cells/tissues, effects of preservation and sterilisation methods on cells/tissues, biotechnology, etc.; clinical applications of banked cells/tissues; standards of practice in procurement, processing, storage and distribution of cells/tissues; ethical issues; medico-legal issues.
