Development of chemical background fluorescence from the H2O2 probe (Amplex Red) was also O2-sensitive, emphasizing relevant calibration considerations. These studies highlight the importance of monitoring and reporting the chamber [O2] at which JO2 and JH2O2 are recorded during fluoro-respirometry experiments, and provide a basis for selecting sample preparations for studies addressing the role mtROS in physiology and disease.The application of ex vivolung perfusion (EVLP) has significantly increased the successful clinical use of marginal donor lungs. While large animal EVLP models exist to test new strategies to improve organ repair, there is currently no rat EVLP model capable of maintaining long-term lung viability. Here, we describe a new rat EVLP model that addresses this need, while enabling the study of lung injury due to cold ischemic time (CIT). The technique involves perfusing and ventilating male Lewis rat donor lungs for 4h before transplanting the left lung into a recipient rat, then evaluating lung function 2h after reperfusion. To test injury within this model,lungswere divided into groups and exposed to different CITs (ie, 20 min, 6h, 12h, 18h and 24h).Experiments involving the 24h CIT group were prematurely terminated due to the development of severe edema. For the other groups, no differences in the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to fractional inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) were observed during EVLP; however, lung compliance decreased over time in the 18h group (P=0.012) and the PaO2/FiO2of the blood from the left pulmonary vein 2h after transplantation was lower compared to 20 min CIT group (P=0.0062).This new model maintained stable lung function during 4h EVLP and after
