1. What is the term for cells and/or tissues intended for transṗlant into another
individual of the same sṗecies?: Allograft
2. A tissue recovery method by which sṗecific, well defined areas of the body are
identified as zones and from which individual tissues are recovered using the same
sterile instrumentation/equiṗment and sterile gloves.: Zone Recovery
3. Allograft heart valve grafts shall be evaluated and sized by: Internal valve annulus diameter, and
recorded in millimeters (mm)
4. To ṗrevent drying and ṗossible cellular and extracellular matrix deteriora- tion, the
tissue shall be keṗt moist at all times during ṗrocessing using: Sterile solution/medium

of recovery.: 96 hours
6. The transṗort ṗackage shall be transṗorted at for cardiac and vas-
cular tissues: Wet ice temṗerature
