Saphenous vein puncture for blood sampling of the mouse, rat, hamster, gerbil, guinea pig, ferret and mink.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is described for blood collection from the lateral saphenous vein. This enables rapid sampling, which if necessary can be repeated from the same site without a need for new puncture wounds. The method is a humane and practical alternative to cardiac and retro-orbital puncture, in species where venepuncture has traditionally been regarded as problematic.

Blood sampling from the retro-orbital plexus, the saphenous vein and the tail vein in rats: comparative effects on selected behavioural and blood variables.
We compared the behaviours of rats, and measured various blood parameters, after three blood sampling techniques: orbital puncture while they were under diethyl-ether anaesthesia, blood collection by tail vein puncture under O2-N2O-halothane anaesthesia and puncture of the saphenous vein without anaesthesia. Twelve rats were subjected to the three treatments according to a Latin square design. ...
متن کاملThe fate of benzoic acid in various species.
1. The urinary excretion of orally administered [(14)C]benzoic acid in man and 20 other species of animal was examined. 2. At a dose of 50mg/kg, benzoic acid was excreted by the rodents (rat, mouse, guinea pig, golden hamster, steppe lemming and gerbil), the rabbit, the cat and the capuchin monkey almost entirely as hippuric acid (95-100% of 24h excretion). 3. In man at a dose of 1mg/kg and the...
متن کاملA comparative study on the effects of new opioid compounds and morphine on the contractility of guinea pig ileum and mouse vas deferens
Considering the clinical significance of opioids, especially their application for the treatment of severe painful conditions including cancer pain and the requirement for the synthesis of more specific drugs with lower side effects, this study was conducted to perform a preliminary investigation on six newly developed opioid drugs. Our aim was to introduce drugs that act selectively on the opi...
متن کاملSpecies differences in the metabolism of 2-acetylaminofluorene by hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture.
Monolayers of hepatocytes from mouse, hamster, rat, and guinea pig metabolized 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) to ether-extractable, water-soluble as well as covalently macromolecular bound products. Hamster hepatocytes showed the highest rate of formation of ether-extractable metabolites, rat and guinea pig the lowest. These species differences reflected mainly differences in the formation of 2-am...
متن کاملMetabolism of the food mutagen 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b] pyridine (PhIP) in isolated liver cells from guinea pig, hamster, mouse, and rat.
The metabolism of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP), the most abundant compound of the aminoimidazoazaarens (AIA) group of mutagens/carcinogens isolated from the crust of fried and broiled meat, was examined in freshly isolated hepatocytes from untreated rat, mouse, hamster, and guinea pig. Activation was evaluated by the total level of covalent binding of PhIP to macromole...
