    "Perhaps a compromise between near normothermic temperatures and the typical 4°C perfusion would be best for clinical use. Here the warmer temperatures at midthermia (15–20°C) may promote metabolic repair but remain cool enough to suppress metabolism and slow reactions and flow rates so that machine automation can be practical for clinical use."
