Cooling of organs and tissues for medical transplants

How cooling of organs and tissues for medical transplants allocated with the effect of temperature on enzymatic reactions?

Molecular degradation throughout the decomposition of tissues and organs is catalyzed by the enzymes. The cooling to the adequate temperatures of some tissues and organs destined for transplantation reduces down that enzyme activity and therefore lessens out the natural decomposition procedure. By same underlying principle, the cooling reduces down the metabolic work of cells and avoids degradation of their own structures to attain energy.
Elevation of temperature later revert denaturation of the enzymes and tissues and organs also preserved through the other specific techniques might be grafted in receptors.
