Strength Characteristics of Swine Injection Devices
نویسنده
چکیده
and Implications Various needle gauges, lengths, and hub material was tested under static loading conditions. Significant differences exist in the needle industry in terms of strength and failure rate. Needle breakage was found to occur only when a bent needle was straightened and then reused. Manufacturing differences were found especially in the bond that joins the needle/hub assembly resulting in significant differences in failure rate.

Iodine based radiopacity of experimental blood clots for testing of mechanical thrombectomy devices
BACKGROUND Barium sulfate powder used for radiopacity of experimental blood clots (EBCs) for testing mechanical thrombectomy devices (MTD) has negative effects on EBCs mechanical properties. In vitro and in vivo exploration was performed to determine if the iodine based contrast medium will have less negative effects on the EBCs than barium. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fresh blood from 2 swine was ...
متن کاملNeedle-free injection technology in swine: Progress toward vaccine efficacy and pork quality
Needle-free injection devices (NFIDs) have been available for humans since the 1930s. Their implementation in the swine industry has been slow because of the low cost and ease of use of needle-syringe injection. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in needle-free devices in swine due to two main factors: immunology research, indicating that targeting dendritic cells in the skin and the s...
