We have developed a cutting-edge device designed to optimize the decellularization of liver tissue for transplantation. Our innovative approach focuses on enhancing tissue fixation, ensuring high-quality perfusion, and improving the overall efficiency of the process. Through extensive prototyping, material testing, and ergonomic optimization, we created a compact, easy-to-assemble system that simplifies handling while preserving tissue integrity. Tested in both virtual simulations and physical models, this solution represents a significant advancement in liver transplantation research, paving the way for future clinical applications.

It will last long enough for its functionality but not too long to become obsolete. This is a new way the designers can experiment and create without making superfluous products.
The only thing needed here is time!
