The invention relates to a cartilage preservation solution. Each 1000ml of the preservation solution comprises 20-30mmol of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 80mmol of histidine or 15mmol of a histidine salt, 75-95mmol of lactobionic acid, 50-70mmol of sucrose, 0.8-1.2mmol of allopurinol, 45-55g of low molecular dextran-40, 45-55mmol of NaCl, 25-35mmol of KCl, 3-7mmol magnesium sulfate, 70-90U of penicillin, 2-4mmol of reduced glutathione, 3-7mmol of adenosine, 2-5g of trehalose, and the balance deionized water, and the pH value of the cartilage preservation solution is 7.33-7.53. The cartilagepreservation solution is packaged, sealed and preserved at 0-4DEG C. By adopting the preservation solution to preserve cartilage tissues, the death speed of cartilage cells is slowed, the activity ofcartilage fibers is maintained, the performance of the cartilage tissues is kept, and the antibiotic property is increased, so the preservation solution has a good preservation effect and a long preservation time on the cartilage tissues, and is in favor of clinic cartilage tissue transplant operations.
