OSU TriState SenNet Processing and Storing of Normal Donor Lungs v1

This protocol describes the processing and storing of normal donor lungs by the Comprehensive Transplant Center (CTC) Human Tissue Biorepository before arrival at the TriState SenNet Biospecimen Core of The Ohio State University that functions as a part of the Cellular Senescence Network Program (SenNet). This protocol is based on the CTC Human Tissue Biorepository's standard operating procedure established for tissue collection for explant and donor samples. We follow routine laboratory specimen processing guidelines to ensure the highest biospecimen quality.
