Abstract
A method of sterilization and preservation which protects structure and cell viability is described. Valves preserved in antibiotic balanced salt solution preserve viability and structure for a limited period of time. Replacement of the balanced salt solution by a nutrient medium has the effect of prolonging viability and increasing storage time.Keywords
