OrganOx, founded 2008, is a 214 Privately Held in the Medical Equipment Manufacturing industry headquartered in Oxford, England OX4 2WB, GB.
The team focuses on Liver preservation, Normothermic machine perfusion, Medical Device, and Transplant.
OrganOx is a medical equipment manufacturer based in Oxford, England, specializing in advanced organ preservation technology. The company produces the OrganOx metra, a transportable, automated device designed for ex vivo liver perfusion. This technology was developed over a period exceeding 15 years by founders Professor Peter Friend and Professor Constantin Coussios, who initially worked at the University of Cambridge before continuing their research at the University of Oxford. OrganOx Limited was established in April 2008 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford.
The company offers an alternative to conventional cold preservation methods, which store livers at 4˚C in non-physiological solutions. Instead, OrganOx utilizes warm preservation to mimic the human body by continuously perfusing organs at physiological pressures and flows with oxygen-carrying red cells at 37˚C. This process provides nutrition, allowing the liver to remain functional during the preservation period by producing bile, metabolizing glucose, and maintaining a physiological pH.
