The Relevance of Cell Viability in Human Tissue Grafts includes five chapters that analyze how the histology of the tissue from the consistency of its matrix to its cellular diversity conditions the response to the procedures applied in tissue banks. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the chapters within the book. Chapter 2 focuses on tissue banking, the process of acquiring, processing, storing and distributing human tissues for medical use, research, or education. Chapter 3 details the aspects that must be considered for the processing and storage of different types of tissues, depending on the properties that must be preserved to achieve their optimal clinical effectiveness as grafts. Chapter 4 highlights platelet derivatives, focusing on cold ischemia, storage and post-transplant ischemia. Finally, Chapter 5 summarizes the overarching conclusions that can be drawn from the manuscript.
