UF Researchers ‘Rewriting Organ Biology’ With Revolutionary Transplant Technology

UF researchers have developed a “detergent” solution for normothermic pumps, through UF Innovate | Accelerate client CasNx, to disinfect organs and potentially improve transplant outcomes.

Think of CasNx’s game-changing research as a dishwasher for human organs on deck for transplants.  

Looking like an oversized crockpot, the pump that keeps organs functioning before transplant surgeries is the washer. And thanks to new technology and collaboration between Gainesville neighbors, University of Florida researchers are creating the detergent. 

The goal: Healthier organs ready for transplant. The UF-developed process stands to revolutionize organ transplants and post-surgical treatment.
