Survival time of Grafts outside the body FUE vs FUT ?

[littlerich68]

I was reading and doing my research regarding graft survival time outside the body . Is the survival threshold 6 hours? I also starting thinking which procedure has the grafts outside longer FUE or FUT ? Obviously depends on size of procedure so let's use 2500 grafts as an average. Do the grafts survive longer in saline solution?

Just curious ? All this is new to me...

Thanks

6 hour's is the time I have been told several times. Most of the top doc's are now putting the grafts in a ATP solution
