Iranian scientists at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences have successfully produced the country's first bio-artificial liver.

"The bio liver grown from animal cells in the laboratory not only has a higher detoxificative function but is also less pricey", said Iran's Health Minister, Kamran Bagheri Lankarani.

He added that the liver can also live outside the body for about a month, which is considered a great success in this field.

Statistics show that more than 2-3 thousand individuals suffer from acute liver failure in Iran whose condition eventually develops into the chronic form of the disease.

Lankarani said bio livers help patients in need of liver transplant to better endure the long period before receiving a new liver by regenerating the remaining liver during this time.
