Research institute in Salem working on brain preservation.
While we do not have these capabilities yet, this is a very brief lay description of how we plan to preserve a brain in an ideal situation.
-Death is pronounced.
-Tubes are inserted into the carotid arteries.
-Blood is washed out to halt metabolism and prevent clotting.
-Aldehyde chemicals are pumped in to stabilize molecules.
-Cryoprotective Agent (CPA) is pumped in to prevent ice crystals.
-CT scan is performed to validate CPA concentration.
-Placed in permanent storage in liquid nitrogen at -196 °C.
We are currently only able to provide very crude storage that is probably not preserving any of the mind. Our facility, staff, and equipment are severely lacking, and the vast distances between "patients" and us precludes any reasonable services.
