According to the literature, the usability of the same ranges from 10 clays to 2! days. The aim was to determine the usefulness of such a maximum time preserved grafts. This study comprised 50 patients, of which, take parts of skin with the size of 3 cm × 5 cm. It started from the 11th day after the 5 preparation were divided, one of which is a part applied to a suitable surface for accepting the transplant, the second part of the extended conservation 10 more days (to be transplanted) and the third placed in formalin and sent to histopatological analysis. Then, a series of five preparations were made, in which each subsequent extended period of conservation by one day longer, ending their 20th day. Usability over 50% of grafts preserved in NaCl solutions up to 20 days, and then felt. It is possible that a transplant is used with 30 days of preservation, but this is the exception, not the usual state.展开更多
